I apologize. Apparently you do have untreated families; but in your example (real?) data some have no pre-treatment observations. Steve Ingrid: You cannot do a DID design without a control group. The "DID" means "Difference in Differences". So one would compare after-before in the treated and in the control. In your data set you have only the difference in the treatment group.
