That's true. It might also be like a dominate/recessive gene, also. So, not all kids born of a human/werewolf coupling will be werewolves. There's magic involved, so genetic logic might not apply. Like how Peter apparently defied the laws of genetics and fathered a coyote! Three of Talia's known children were werewolves, so her bloodline appears to be stable. I myself have wondered about werewolves who have been Bitten, as opposed to being born. Like if Scott or Isaac (Bitten) had children with Allison, would they be were-whatevers?

If it is a disease, not a genetic condition, it would make sense that offspring born to a werewolf mother would be infected. But, as with any STD, whether it is successfully transmitted by the father might be more iffy, especially if he only slept with the mother once.
