I follow the pro/anti natalist space and I'm not sure if anybody is "screaming" at people to have more kids.

Is this "screaming?"
I happen to live near a very religious community, and I share some common spaces with some of the families coming from that background (swimming pool, parks).

They don't scream, but the social pressure is absolutely there.

It’s less “screaming” and more “tut-tut moralizing and shaming”. Ironically, it’s mostly from the same people who spent the previous decades going “don’t have kids you can’t afford!” and are now appalled that people took their advice.
Wasn't the previous advice meant for black and muslim people, rather than WASPs?
This is people talking about the issue, not "screaming."
