I have noticed that for most survey websites, they are asking for the number of children in the household and those who do not have children are often disqualified. What is the reason why the survey websites are asking for the number of children?
Why do survey websites ask for number of children in household?

To be honest, neither do I. However, it is possible that they are requesting the number of children for reference. There are surveys that parents or children must complete. That is simply my wild guess.
I really don't know why they ask that too. And it is so common in all surveys, you get disqualified if you don't have children. My wild guess is that they probably think that when you have children, you are responsible and making an income to support them. It could also be that having children makes you purchase some of the items they are researching about.
All survey sites ask for number of household. It's somewhat weird. What shall they do with the data? I thought after answering they will offer a product but none. It makes a survey lengthy then after some minutes they will reject the applicant.
I actually don't know the reason, but I suspect that surveys sometimes target people who have children to find out what they need for their children. For example, a survey regarding product brands for babies and children, to find out how interested people are in a product.
I think survey providers ask the number of children a user have is to filter the survey that they are going to give us, some surveys are only for peoples who have children and some are for those who don't have any child.
