Combine with proper social policies that make it possible for families to live on a single income, and you can bet that most women will choose children over career.

Tell me what types of jobs have people willing working year round on the weekends. You will see that most are not doing by choice, but because of circumstances.

i very much doubt that, for reasons already explained. most women will not want to be dependent on a man or the state to be able survive. they will choose independence over having children.
it used to be possible for a family to live on one salary. and for work in IT or other high paying jobs it still is. if you were right then most families who could afford to live on one salary would do so, but they don't, and those who could not would protest.
no matter what policies we enact, women do not want to stay at home.
they want a career just like men. and i see no reason why they shouldn't.
people do not want to live on a single income. besides the independence for women they also prefer the extra wealth.
if we want people to have more children we need to allow everyone to combine working and raising children.

ok, i have to concede that point. if we allow sunday work we do need to have some strong protections to allow people to refuse, and it's probably not easy to work out what is needed to do that, and i don't know if we want to explore that in this discussion.
in the US btw people can demand the sunday off to practice their religion. it's not enough, but it is at least something.
It already does.
