Notes
GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
In case there is no information available about whether the father is dead or not we just use code 2 (not a HH member). In case, the relationship to head variable indicates that the brother of the head is living in the HH with nephews/nieces of the head we assume that these last are the sons/daughters of the head's brother.


COUNTRY SPECIFIC NOTES
----------------------------------
Father and Mother Variables were generated based on D7 and D9 indicating if the person's parents are still alive and if they are household members. The rest of the parents characteristics were based on D8 and D10 indicating the mother/father's line number in the household.
