Title: Birth Order and Unwanted Fertility (with Wanchuan Lin and Juan Pantano)

Abstract
This paper analyzes the relationship between birth order and unwanted fertility. A large literature documents birth order effects in various outcomes with children born later usually faring worse than earlier-born siblings. We document that children higher in the birth order are more likely to be unwanted, in the sense that they were conceived at a time in which the family was not planning to have additional children. A separate literature documents negative outcomes associated with being an unwanted child. We connect the two literatures and show that part of the documented birth order effects in completed education and employment may reflect this increasing prevalence of unwanted children at higher parities and the disruption they imply in parental plans for optimal investment in their children.
