Not so sure that is enough… 5 days of work then 2 days of taking care of kids and cleaning and laundry? It takes months between me and my wife getting a couple of hours for ourselves.

Only thing I think could help is going back to the traditional housewife/houseman with grandparents. Then it would work to get 3+ kids. But right now with increasing cost and rising pension age that seems like a dream.

A productive country will wrangle out the time from its productive members and let the non productive members have kids… which might not be the best approach in the long run.
