I understand, thank you so much. Let's consider 2010. My merged file has as unit of analysis children. If I want to run some descriptive statistics for their mothers and fathers, without counting twice a mother or father of two children, how can I do?

For example, I want to do tab v745b and tab mv745b, so I want to check the percentage of parents owing land alone, jointly, or both. But, if a mother has two children, I will have two lines in the dataset for the same mother (child 1 and child2), that will be counted as twice in my tab v745b. Any suggestions on that?

thank you so much

Best,
Francesca
