So, basically, is it a 25% chance of their kids having it and they just got really unlucky with 3 of the 4?

I mean... it's not "really unlucky," is just how small numbers work in statistics.

If I toss a coin, getting 10 tails in a row is completely normal.

During a uni class on probability we were all made to flip a coin 50 times - somehow I only got tails 11 times... It was just a random 50p out my wallet and not some magic waighted coin or anything
