I don't know why I am getting into this conversation but here is what I think and I really don't care if it is contradictory to some research for it is how I interperated the story. Elrond and Elros were given a choice. Since Elrond chose to stay with the elves his children were immortal because of his choice. I think I have read some place that the children of Elrond also had the choice but if they didn't Arwen really didn't make the choice to become mortal she just chose to marry one so she became mortal anyway. I think any elf would become mortal if they married one even if they had Elrond's choice or not.
