Abstract: This paper focuses on gender aspects upon children's food security. Using data from the 1995/1996 Nepal Living Standards Survey, this study attempts to find evidence to whether children are heavier for their age, taller for their age or heavier for their height in families where mother's intra-family status is relatively better.
