Least then he would have been a lot better prepared and probably could done a lot better against Vader, but lets face it...he beat Vader cause he felt anger that Vader wanted to turn Leia to the dark side.


The answer is in Episode 3. They say they're going to hide the children from the Sith until the time is right.

Right time was waiting for good circumstances like there being a Rebellion, and Luke being an adult so he can join the rebellion while training.

Remember in ESB The Emporer and Vader both have sensed this strong disturbance in the Force from Luke's training. He just would not have survived long if that was sensed when he was a kid, and when there was no proper/organised resistance to the Empire.

Personally I don't think at the time ANH was made Lucas planned Jedi to be trained from an infant's age.

I like this. Once the rebellion was started, the Empire would sense Luke somewhere mixed in with the Rebels. That was how Vader knew the probe on Hoth was at the Rebel base, he detected Luke. That is bad in some ways (endangering the mission..) but in some ways it helped Luke train because he was usually defended by a Rebel military force around him. The Empire would need to attack an entire Rebel base if it wanted to get to him.
