TAILIEUCHUNG - CSAE WPS/2010-16: Parental Education and Child Health – Understanding the Pathways of Impact in Pakistan

Oral health professionals play a significant role in counseling patients concerning the harmful effects of tobacco, alcohol and recreational drugs. During the pregnancy, the consequences of these behaviors are profound. Multiple studies have demonstrated a clear association between maternal smoking and perinatal morbidity and mortality (6-10). Women who smoke are at increased risk for low birth weight babies, bleeding during pregnancy, premature labor and preterm rupture of membranes. Infant health risks associated with maternal smoking include sudden infant death syndrome, hospitalization and neurodevelopmental abnormalities | CSAE WPS 2010-16 Parental Education and Child Health -Understanding the Pathways of Impact in Pakistan By Monazza Aslam and Geeta Kingdon This study investigates the relationship between parental schooling on the one hand and child health outcomes height and weight and parental health-seeking behaviour immunisation status of children on the other. While establishing a correlational link between parental schooling and child health is relatively straightforward confirming a causal relationship is more complex. Using unique data from Pakistan we aim to understand the mechanisms through which parental schooling promotes better child health and health-seeking behaviour. The following pathways are investigated educated parents greater household income exposure to media literacy labour market participation health knowledge and the extent of maternal empowerment within the home. We find that while father s education is positively associated with the one-off immunisation decision mother s education is more critically associated with longer term health outcomes in OLS equations. Instrumental variable IV estimates suggest that father s health knowledge is most positively associated with immunisation decisions while mother s health knowledge and her empowerment within the home are the channels through which her education impacts her child s height and weight respectively.
