I would try but I don't want to lie to you
That is quite literally what it was, a counter-narrative to the war in Việt Nam. Also as mentioned in this article, a picture of Henry Kissinger and his kids with the cast of The Brady Bunch.

It was just much more common back then tho, my dad was the last of 9 kids. Lots of farm families, or second generation from farmers (ie. kids of farmers) tend to just have lots and lots of kids. It was a strategy to get more free labor in a lot of ways, plus their religion tells them to pop out as many as possible. I do think the american government made programs to encourage birth as a cold war preparation thing, but that wasn't where the idea of a huge family came from. It was simply protestant farmers that did that.
... holy shit, i never thought of that
