Child Education Variable [message #3935]

I am working with all three waves of the Indian dataset to understand how socioeconomic status affects school enrollment. The problem with the 1998-99 data is that the household level data contain individual member education (whether in school or not is the variable of interest for me) but children are individually defined only in the birth dataset. Despite merging these two datasets, there is no way to uniquely identify if the child is enrolled in school. Is there a way to match whether the child is in school from household level data to the birth dataset that uniquely defines each child?
