I’d start by not cutting off healthy young women’s breasts, putting them on hormonal witches brews that prevent and screw up natural puberty, and I would suggest not cutting skin off their arms to create some bizarre Frankenphallus.

Free child care is really the only thing that might work.

I think they do enough damage to the kids in the 13 years they have them in the public school system. Giving them an extra 4 years? Sorry, no thanks.

Free or heavily subsidized child care and college. The two biggest expenses of parenthood.
@jon-nyc Is it really finances that contribute to low birth rates? (I mean other than at the margins)
On average, people with lower incomes (and can least afford it) tend to have higher birth rates. On average--and despite how people may answer on surveys...people who want kids have kids whether or not they can afford a baby sitter.
@LuFins-Dad Look on the bright side. To have near universal childcare, it'd be more like 4 years early on, and then four years after high school. So an extra 8 total.
