To begin with, we used the pre-gen characters and I took one too, even as a DM. In my opinion, no starter player should begin with two characters. We actually ran through/started this twice, because the first time was full of figuring out what the heck we were doing. On the second run through, I bought the three core books, and we all generated our own characters.We never did finish Mines, but by the end of our second run through, at least one of the kids was willing/able to run two characters. We still have to have a DMNPC, though, because of our lack of outside-the-household players.Also, we found that eventually everybody is going to want their own copy of the Player's Manual, and anybody who wants to DM is going to want their own copy of the DMG.</blockquote>
