Magical children would be hard to script for since they wouldn't necessarily be old enough to control their powers. Most of the children left out of the DLC could potentially destroy your house, and Skyrim doesn't have the most child friendly environment. There are no schools, except for the occasional mage's college, and your character tends to be an escaped prisoner as opposed to growing up someplace. Since there was no thought given to who the Dragonborn's parents might be, it is unlikely that he or she will become a parent or have children though anything but adoption. Also, some of the posts in this topic remind us of the words of Racial Phylogeny: "We can't force two individuals to make simply to satisfy our intellectual curiosity" (paraphrased). Given the level of crime the player is allowed to indulge in, giving them children seems dangerously irresponsible. If we're sending letters to Bethesda, we might want to do something about giving the Dragonborn a real job and a family history before we think of the children.
