I don't know how his first son died, whether he was premature or what. All I know was that his name was Norman, nicknamed "Little Mouse", and that he was severely handicapped. But the lose greatly affected Chaplin, as it would any other parent, and it's what inspired him to make "The Kid". When anyone asks me how many kids he has, I always count Norman. <p>

Only one other child has died since, Charles Jr., but he was an adult (passed away in 1968). All the others are still alive.<p>
