Why didn't Elros' children get the choice?

All 3 of Elrond's children ( It was 3...right? ) seemed to have been given the choice, yet to my knowledge none of Elros' children were given the choice. It seems a little unfair to me


Was it this way so as to tie 'loose ends'? The 3 Houses of Men had to get Númenórë up and running and maybe if Elros' children had been given the choice as to which kindred they wished to belong to it may have complicated things? ( especialy is they'd all chosen to belong to the 1st born )

Was there a diferent reason?
