Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In case there is no information available about whether the father is dead or not we just use code 2 (not a HH member). In case, the relationship to head variable indicates that the brother of the head is living in the HH with nephews/nieces of the head we assume that these last are the sons/daughters of the head's brother.


COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
* All parents related variables were generated by ERF including the presence status generated using the relationship to head variable, therefore those dead could not be identified.

* Father's and Mother's variables were generated for the head of the household's children, the head him/herself whenever his/her parent(s) are household
members, for head’s siblings if parents’ data is available, and for head’s grandchildren if he/she has married sons/daughters or in laws living in the household. In some cases, children were linked to their parents based on the HH data entry order.

* In case the head has multiple spouses, the identification of the children’s mothers among different spouses is judgmental whether on age basis, or on members' order in the household.
