Are there any counter indications to loading all 5 DLC packages at the start of a game? Such as map conflicts or resource hogging or general confusion?

The DLC is just scattered around the wasteland. In order to find the locations turn on your radio and you will see a bunch of new radio broadcasts. Listening to said broadcasts will make the DLC locations appear on your map (with the exception of Broken Steel). You can also go here and read the main article for each of the DLC's listed. The first quest in the main article has a "given by" section which will tell you how to access them:
As a side note when you reloaded the first disk after installing the dlc you should have gotten notifications that a new signal has appeared on your radio. So hopefully this isn't actually a bug.
The physical locations of the DLC (on your pc) are:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Xlive\DLC (Windows XP) %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\XLive\DLC (Windows Vista & Windows 7)
Just in case you want to check if they actually installed.
No children can be directly killed in Fallout 3.
I don't recall if there are children in Tenpenny Tower, but if you release the ghouls there, all the tower's inhabitants will be killed.
The evil resolution at the end of Take it Back!
will kill all Capital Wastelanders in the long term, aside from those who were born on vaults.
You can also enslave children at the end of Those! and on Little Lamplight.
At the Brotherhood of Steel Citadel, there's Arthur Maxson, who
will probably be killed if you choose to blow up the Citadel at the end of Who Dares Wins (in the Broken Steel add-on)
You monster.

Nope,actually it is better to load all possible mods and DLCs and start the new game than adding them at different times or loading previous games.
Bugs and textures and so will be overwriten or constant rather than making sudden changes in your savegames which can lead to missing file/texture for other mods...which will cause avalanche of crashes.
Note: DLCs are official and are bug tested(mostly),adding many mods(community) will make serious problems as gametime goes on.
