Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

As has been stated in other postings, the PR file includes all children living in the household. It gives the most representative information about children in the household population. The KR file is limited to children whose mother is living and in the household. It does not include children whose mother has died or is living in a different household than the child. The children who are in the PR file but not the KR file tend to be relatively deprived and are more likely to be stunted, etc. However, if you want to relate stunting (etc.) to other characteristics of the child, or characteristics of the mother, it is necessary to use the KR file.
