> The only thing that we would have to forego would be having large numbers
of children.
Correct.  An average of two children per couple would result in population
decline, since not all potentially-reproductive couples have children, and
a proportion never get into a reproductive relationship.
The most effective way to reduce the average number of children per female
is by educating and empowering women, and providing access to
contraceptives.  No mandates necessary.
