33This paper offers evidence on the parental education and sons’ earn-ings relationship by analyzing the father and
mother educationgradientacross the full distribution of sons’ earnings. It uses an unconditionalquantile approach based
on recentered influence function regressions andapplies an Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition at various quantiles of the earn-ing
distribution to explain time, gender and geographical differentials inearnings. Using six waves of the Survey of Income
and Wealth (from2004to 2014) for Italy, I find evidence of higher returns to family education inthe upper percentiles of
the distribution of son’s earnings with the prob-ability of ending up in high deciles being significantly correlated with
theeducation level of the father. Results show an important heterogeneity inthe association of parental education as well
as of individual covariates tosons’ earnings across time, gender and geographical areas of the countrywhich varies
significantly along the earning distribution and accounts fora substantial percentage of the differentials in observed earnings
