Notes

GENERAL NOTES
----------------------
There might be a problem identifying the mother from the Roster in case of multiple spouses. This variable can be clearly identified only in the fathers'/mothers' ID is provided in the dataset. In case of only one spouse she is assumed to be the mother, unless the age checking is could identify those living with their step mother (mother died or divorced).

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.
