I don't know that they are neocons, but there's a few potential reasons why neocons want people to have kids. I'll come up with a couple, but since I'm not a neocon I wouldn't take this as gospel:
1. The main complaint about people not having kids is that we need kids to maintain "our" culture. Without kids, the only way we maintain our country in the future at all is through mass immigration, which alters the culture.
2. For whatever reason, poor people have more kids then better off people. Better off people are better financially capable of raising kids without government assistance, and of course neocons aren't fans of government assistance.
