    Well, it would certainly hurt the lone wolf image. As Michael pointed out, few HB PIs have ongoing relationships with the opposite sex (and many of those conveniently die or vanish between books), so if they had kids, they would most likely be from a one night stand. For instance, McGee's daughter first showed up as a young adult. Oh, same with the daughter in Sallis's latest series.
