I think mother's milk is needed in the beginning for good growth and development. And that's not veganism. Also, if kids don't get some form of concentrated protein during their growing years, they will likely be shorter than average. But kids have been raised on vegan diets. For example, the author of "The China Study" raised his kids on a vegan diet and one son was a co-author of the book.
