I do, or would, fault people for having more kids than would be sustainable for the population if everyone had that many kids.
I never assumed I would have kids. It has never been part of a life I envisioned for myself. I always saw myself as way too young to even think about having kids until one day I realised I was now too old ;)
I congratulate people on getting pregnant because I know that's what they want, and I should be happy that they are in a situation that makes them happy. But I always privately add "better you than me!"
