And I keep having even more problems here that I am not sure what to
make of. Does anyone have any pointers? The problem follows

.ivprobit  employment  (bmi bmisq= diet3 diet2) age agesq edu2 edu3
edu4 edu5 edu6 marriage2 marriage3 marriage4 children if male==1

Fitting exogenous probit model

Iteration 0:   log likelihood = -252.92612
Iteration 1:   log likelihood = -168.34655
Iteration 2:   log likelihood =  -162.4095
Iteration 3:   log likelihood = -162.14365
Iteration 4:   log likelihood = -162.14188
Iteration 5:   log likelihood = -162.14188

Fitting full model

initial values not feasible
