    Putting aside economical aspect, western civilisation in order to sustain itself, requires on average little above 2 children per household (can’t find the link to the study). Such number would provide enough “man power” to replace aging work force and would keep society going forward. This is the perfect world scenario. Unfortunately we don’t live in a perfect world and there’s nothing current governments can do to change it. It would require a lot of work, money and time and no government will risk long term investment because it won’t give much votes.
