Question 16



-- Of all children born alive, how many are currently alive?

The total number of the person's live children at the time of the census, whether they live with her or not.

The enumerator should insist in finding out about live children living in another place since there is a tendency to omit those who are absent.

Description

Definition
This variable indicates the number of children currently alive.

NOTE: The data for this variable appear to be faulty. Far too few women report surviving children. We include the variable only for the possibility that some researcher might figure out a way to make use of these data.
Universe
Females age 12+ who ever gave birth
