I guess I need to clarify my theory.  I have received several replies saying
that Kyle explained the situation at various points in the film.  I realize
this, and remember his explainations, but consider this: If you were from
the future, and were your own father (thus you have to get to know your
mother or you don't exist) would you come out and tell her, "Hi, I'm your
son, let's do it"?  I got the feeling that his whole story was a ploy on
his part so that she could deal with the situation.  Comments on this?
