Do children need more fat as % of diet?

I have read conflicting info written that suggests children eating a WFPB diet should also eat low fat (10%) and other WFPB resources that suggest higher amounts (25%). Are the dietary guidelines different for children? Any difference in the types of plant fats?

No they do not need more fat in their diet than adults once weaned.
