Attachment parenting seems to be another way to limit family size...
No, it’s a way to build your own self-esteem through the child.
When I was young and raising my first child, we lived in a resort town with a beach. One day a few women with preschool age kids went to the beach and let the kids run around and play while we socialized . The one woman was president of the local La Leche League. About every 20 minutes her kid, who was between 2 and 3 would run up to her, pull down her bathing suit and stand there sucking away.
I never went to the beach with the woman again.
