I mean he had 2 close calls where if not for Sasuke he would not have ever come back. He is still an experimenter and researcher, but I doubt that he doesn't love his son.. otherwise he would not have sent him to Konoha to live there, make friends and enter the academy. I believe for once Orochimaru isn't being selfish and he really wants a different, better life for his son. All the more reason for someone who wants to be immortal with a godlike body to bolster his chances of getting it. I'm sorry I have problems believing someone like him would want to have kids just because he wants to love a child. That would be like if JK Rowling had Voldermort at the end of the series sit down and have a child to love and care for.

Then again we are talking about Kishi so who knows he has pulled some crazy things that make no sense before so for all I know you're right. I mean if you want evidence for this the entire Gaiden made no freakin sense.
