Is a family in Kidd’s future? What could be next in Chicago Fire season 13?

Storylines involving family for Kidd will come up in Chicago Fire season 13. Does that mean kids, or is that family something else?

The end of season 12 had Severide dropping a bombshell of a question on Kidd. He wants to start a family with her, but he does acknowledge that having kids together will impact her and her career more than him and his.

It was a bit of an odd way to end the season since there wasn’t time to have a full conversation about it. This is clearly where the season will pick up from, although Severide also needs to deal with a growing family of his own. What about Kidd, though?

Kidd’s family will grow but not with children in Chicago Fire season 13

It looks like someone from Kidd’s family is going to come into the picture in some way. We already know that Kidd’s parents died when she was young, and she was raised by her aunt and uncle. We’ve not seen or heard much about her family since, but that is about to change.

It makes sense that family will come up. Kidd will want someone to talk through about having children with Severide. The topic of children really is something that should have come up before they got married, but it’s a discussion that couples rarely have on shows. Kidd didn’t seem completely against the idea, but it’s just not the right time for her at the moment.

There may also be something from the past that affects her. The show has never really explained how or why her parents died. Is it possible that one of them died due to a genetic illness that Kidd worries about passing on? Or is it just the fact that her parents’ deaths contributed to Kidd turning to drugs and alcohol?

It’s time to explore Kidd’s family more in Chicago Fire

If I’m being honest, the idea of another half-sibling for Severide seems weak and overused. It’s been done, and we know plenty about Severide and his family. There are many other characters with intriguing backstories, and Kidd is one of them.
There is so much to explore in terms of family. It’s time to find out what happened to her parents, and more about the aunt and uncle who raised her.

Then there’s the Girls on Fire program, which she was able to save thanks to Damon and Carver. Kidd has always nurtured other women into the fire service, and we need to see more of that before she starts family of her own. She is ahead in her career and now isn’t the time to slow down. I could just see this creating conflict with Severide, as she could decide that she doesn’t want a family of her own.
