Good morning,

I am try to understand if the negative effect I found on "ideal number of children" (V614) is driven by a reduction in desire for boys or girls. Thus, I was using variable V627 and V628 (respectively, number of desired boys and girls).

Then, I found that V629 is "desired children of either sex". How is this different from V614, total number of desired sex, irrespectively of sex?

Thank you
