I even had to list mine that were in the late 20's and were USC with kids of their own

You can petition separately but still the instructions which say  in general instructions :

3. Answer all questions fully and accurately

 

https://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/document/forms/i-129finstr.pdf

 

Item Numbers 39. - 44.h. Children of Beneficiary. Indicate whether your beneficiary has any children. If you answered “Yes,” provide information about each child of your beneficiary. Include the child’s full name, country of birth, and date of birth. If the child resides at a different address than your beneficiary, provide the address where the child currently resides. If your beneficiary has more than one child, use Part 8. Additional Information to respond to Item Numbers 40.a. - 44.h. for each child.

 

The important part of the instructions are

NOTE: A child (unmarried and under 21 years of age) of a K-1 or K-3 nonimmigrant may apply for a nonimmigrant visa to accompany or follow-to-join the K-1 or K-3 parent. You do not need to file a separate petition to classify the child as a K nonimmigrant. Children of K-1s are classified as K-2 nonimmigrants,   BUT the 18 year old was not listed in the original petition
