Paul, 

 

I'd disagree because there are no births to be in the past tense, the
couple are very much in the present and will never have children so
'have' seems better but I can see your point. Maybe an extra wording
option on the marriage screen would be the way to go, then it could be
done for some as required.

Jeremy,
It is correct to say "had no children" even with the parents living.
The birth would be past tense and so is "had".  I think the Legacy
programmers thought this through and correctly.
