IF NONE, RECORD '00'

Interviewer instructions

Q.201 is phrased slightly differently for men. As with women, we are interested in the biological children a man has had. Because many children live away from their fathers, the question prompts men to think about children who are their biological children but may not be legally theirs or carry their last name.
