I think Emma is magical because she is born of True Love. In a way magic made her, so it would make sense that she has inherited the magic herself. Whereas, say Regina and Cora were susceptible to learning magic because of their strong determination and raw emotions. I don't think just anyone can use magic in the EF though.

I would think that because True Love is rare there aren't many children born magical BUT yes, I guess that anyone born of True Love would be just as magical as Emma.

Could you imagine a child born of True Love that was actually schooled in magic from early in their lives. With Merlin as their teacher (maybe reaching slightly but I smiled as I wrote it) They would be highly skilled though, enough to dispatch evil quite easily...
