I don't consider it being a kids show being a factor.
The show was FREAKIN BRILLIANT.
I just don't think that they solved the problem of killing very well. I'd argue that if that was the whole point, then they shouldn't have done it because unfortunately, the REAL solution that the show was showing was that Aang should have killed the Fire Lord. To conveniently learn some miraculous move that takes powers away was just the writers admitting that "violence is never the answer" is in fact, NOT a realistic answer.
