For all you knights in shining armor: most kids are forced to be meat eaters. You have to make a choice for your kids one way or the other, and if you are vegan but healthy, there's nothing wrong with raising your kids vegan. For some people this might also be due to their religion, Hindus for example are strictly vegetarian.
Non-vegans force their kids to be non-vegan too, because that's just how they raise them. Now, you might say "but they give their kids a choice".
But is it an informed choice? Do non-vegan parents show their kids / inform their kids about the violence and cruelty that is standard, legal practice in animal agriculture? Do they show them the terrible conditions 99% of farmed animals live in, the maceration of baby male chicks in the egg industry, the forced impregnation of dairy cows and the violent killing of animals?
Do they, at the very least, discuss the ethics of eating meat / animal products with their kids and explain to them that it is not necessary to eat them (i.e. they eat meat for taste pleasure and convenience only)?
No, they don't.
If they did, I can guarantee you that more kids would want to be vegan or at least vegetarian. Many non-vegan parents even try to stop their kids from going vegan / vegetarian.
And this doesn't even go into the actual ethical component. Let me ask you this - why should (vegan) parents be forced to pay for unnecessary exploitation of and cruelty towards animals, just for their kids? What you say is vegan parents "forcing" their kids to be vegan is just them not paying for products whose production they are morally against. Vegan parents do not physically stop their kids from consuming animal products. They just don't purchase those products for them, as they are against unnecessary exploitation of and cruelty towards animals.
Its about Ethics in Food Production sweetheart
Shitty parents always finding ways to abuse their kids. Can't beat the shit out of them anymore? Okey then. Let me treat you like a rabbit during the time they need the most nutrients...

You can be vegan by force

As the phrase that I had coined goes: If I cannot join them, I will rise above them; and if I cannot rise above them, I will destroy them. I've been trying to join and be accepted among the beautiful, popular people all my life, but it was to no avail. They have always treated me like scum. Girls have always deemed me unworthy of their love and s*x. I tried to overthrow them by gaining wealth at a young age, from trying to come up with invention ideas, to contemplating writing an epic story, and finally to trying to win the lottery. At this point, the prospect of overthrowing them seemed hopeless. The final solution to triumph over my enemies was to destroy them, to carry out my Day of Retribution, to exact my ultimate and devastating vengeance against all of the popular young people who never accepted me, and against all women for rejecting me and starving me of love and s*x.
