Can someone do me a favor and point to which episodes I need to watch for clarification on Borg kids? Thanks.

IIRC the TNG episodes we saw Borg Babies in never said that they were produced by the Borg, it is much more likely that like the elder children who we see in Maturation chambers in VGR with elements of cybernetics attached, they were being prepared for this and were simply the assimilated beings of whatever race they had encountered... who like so many others just happened to look human ;)

Though indeed, there is no reason why physical reproduction shouldn't take place... yet you'd think if the borg were so advanced assimilation wouldn't be a real issue, Trek-Earth was creating superhuman clones in the 90's... I'm sure the Borg with their 'maturation chambers' and the like could do the same...

Collective and Ashes to Ashes. The Borg children also make an appearence in several other episodes.

Doubtful, considering how much Unimatrix Zero freaked out the queen, it seemed like Borg going rogue was a freakishly rare occurance. There is Hugh's group, but it doesn't seem like anything ever came of that.

Doesn't Lore's First Church of Borg count? 8)

I did not mean individualistic "rogue" Borg.
I mean Borg which have their own collective which is not connected with the main collective of the Borg.

Because they are out of range of the subsapce transmitters of the collective in the delta quadrant or something similar.
