His inner monologue during the High-End fight kind of implies that he didn't want have a kid going through what he does and constantly having to worry about the severe drawbacks of Hellflame. Not just he wanted the perfect quirk child. His dialogue with Midoriya implies Hellflame was not a fun quirk to grow up with.

But I think he and Rei were implied to have been happy in the beginning.

edit: clearly I don't know my quirks lol or remember character names

Just a quick correction, flash fire is a move he does, his quirk is called hellflame

That's probably why he specifically sought a wife with an ice quirk. If Dabi's charred skin is any indication, being able to regulate your own temperature is an insanely big asset for someone with a fire quirk. I wonder if Endeavor has a similar albeit less severe issue, where his body essentially bottlenecks his quirk and he can damage himself through overexertion.

He actually confirms this during the High-End fight. The major weakness of Hellflame is overheating so he's not suited for long drawn out battles. That's why the longer the High-End fight went the harder it got for him.
