Bring forth children (5)

I believe the answer is:

issue

I believe this is a double definition.

'bring forth' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'children' is the second definition.
(issue can mean someone's offspring)

(Other definitions for issue that I've seen before include "Sprogs" , "Matter for discussion" , "Matter of dispute" , "Emerge" , "Subject to discuss" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
