Child labor, you just said that children are a burden when they used to be an asset. Parents could rent out their children to a factory for the price of food and a pod to sleep in.
Mandatory education is also a huge depressor. What's the point in having kids if you just act as a place that feeds them, keeps them overnight, and gets them ready for the real authority in the kids' lives, which is the government?
It turns out that when you take away people's authority (and charge them for the privilege), they become less invested in the product and less likely to have more of that product.
