Research direction

The issue says non-empirical household variable generation creates households with children living on their own, but gives no files, tests, or reproduction steps. First inspect the household generation code and its tests to find the relevant path; define the expected household constraints and add a regression test before changing behavior. Done means generated households no longer have children living on their own.
