Write the number of male and female children in the corresponding boxes.

If in the previous question you did not get a response, leave it blank or write "99" and when asking this question you attain any concrete or contradictory number, ask the previous question again (Question 40) and make the correction.

If only one of the boxes has information about children currently alive, write "00" in the other.

If they respond to you that "none" or "all are dead" mark with "x" option "00"and leave blank boxes "No. of male children" and "No. of female children". Go to question 43 and do not ask question 42.

If a woman or the interviewed person do not know how many children are alive or dead, write "99" in the boxes "No. of male children" and "No. of female children".
