31. Section B: Information regarding females aged 12 years and above
31.3 Columns P26-P27: Children Living in the Household
If the woman has born children alive, ask, "of the children you have born alive, how many usually live with you in this household?" Remember that for all childless women you must enter '0' in the appropriate boxes.
Write the number of boys and girls who usually live in the household in columns P26 and P27 respectively. If none of the boys or girls the woman has borne alive are living in the household, write "0" in the appropriate boxes. Children borne to the woman who are in boarding school should be included among the children who usually live in the household. In case of a visitor who spent the Census Night with her children in the household, these children should not be captured in P26 and P27 but in P28 and P29.
