Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

You should use either the hc variables in the PR file or the hw variables in the KR file. You do not need to use the IR file or to merge the IR and PR files. In the KR file, individual children are cases and the mother's information is on the child's record.
