Probably because, while all children in Skyrim are of a vague age, it would be really awkward to end up with a pregnancy alert after "Lover's Comfort", then have a nine-year-old wandering the house after 72 in-game hours... and all the more awkward if you expect a realistic growth period and have to wait nine in-game months for the pregnancy alone, never mind the many in-game years before you can do anything meaningful with the kid...Whateveralot said:Adoption of children - Moddable. But why only adoption and not just creating one yourself through your wife. Jeesh.
Let's just say that years in Skyrim don't pass THAT quickly.
Also, what if your character is female? Do you think most people playing a female Dovahkiin should take maternity leave?
