S. Of the children you have, how many do you think are alive on the date of the census?

Question S - How many of the children the person has had are living on the date of the Census?

The answer should include all the living children of each respondent (whether a man or a woman), even if from more than one union. Therefore, all legitimate and illegitimate living children should be enumerated, not only those living in the household but also those who no longer live there on the date of the Census.
For those who have not had children or who do not have any living children, the box entitled None should be marked with an X.
