Just give incentives to voluntarily have less kids. Heck, even just education, high wages, and social mobility (particularly for women) typically drops the birth rate at or under 1 child anyway.
Better ensure perfect women/men equality before doing that, otherwise it leads to a big gender disbalance and high infanticide rate for girls, as was demonstrated in China.
Or just limit1 baby per couple, same effect. Population halves every life cycle
if memory serves, last time that was attempted it did not work.

What’s happening now is different story. Maybe it’ll come full circle.
Carrot vs stick.

Absolutely, that’s a bigger fight altogether
