Forcing can be in terms of incentives like tax rebates etc.

  It might be that the incentives offered in Western European countries aren't large enough, but it seems counter-intuitive - we had much larger families when the incentives were much smaller. The long established population has very few children, recent immigrants (from poorer countries) have more, but also show falling birth rates within a few generations. And that's in countries with free education, usually free healthcare for children, tax rebates, financial support from the government et cetera.
