Again, the Bible is not a step by step history book. It's not going to mention everything all the time. God told Adam and Eve to multiply and fill the earth (Gen 1:4) Just because the Bible only mentions the names of Adam and Eve's first 3 male children, doesn't mean they didn't have more kids. If you of read the Bible, you would know why Seth is specifically mentioned after Abel died. Seth's descendant's are the first mentioned to "call upon the lord", his descendant's became the Patriarchs, the nation of Israel and eventually Christ.
Seth is mentioned being born in Gen 4:25 "And Adam knew his wife again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For God, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead of Abel, whom Cain slew." And it is in the KJV.
Maybe you should read it again.
Edit: Grammar Hard.
I often wondered where the other kids came from but never really cared or thought much about it. I figured not everything was written in it. I thought I read but could be wrong as it was a long time ago that Adam and Eve had other children after Seth and they were girls. Maybe Seth committed incest, who knows? In the grand scheme of things, it doesn't really matter.
