Dear User,

For
2) and 3) please see the response from one of our experts, Mr. Noureddine Abderrahim:
Quote:
Question 2: Not all the children in the children's recode file are present in the household roster. Such as children who have died or whose mothers are visitors but did not bring their children with them.
Question 3: All children information come from the reporting of the mother. No child is interviewed. All children in the children's file are children of interviewed mothers.
