The chief problem is often the people who have the most children are poor and uneducated (as one of the reasons they had that many children is because they didn't use birth control, not because they couldn't get it, but because they couldn't be bothered to use it). They don't have the means or ability to raise the children they are having, so even if they are born, these children are born into a life of hardship.

So either children past the second one should be limited based on your income to ensure you actually can support those children, or government handouts should cease if you have more than 2 children that you can't support to discourage you from doing it further.
