Notes: Each panel is a separate regression showing the effect of COVID and/or the differential effect of COVID by gender for different parental and/or marital status samples. Standard errors in parentheses are clustered by household. See Table 1 for control variables. Regressions also include interactions of the subgroup with month and year; * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01
