worried about son going vegan

My husband and I are going to greatly reduce dairy and meat. We are worried about our 13 month old doing the same. I have read a lot and watched the Forks over Knives documentary and can totally understand the benefits but for some reason we are concerned about reducing our son's dairy and meat. He has always eaten a diet full of organic veggies, fruit, whole grains, brown rice, barley, quinoa, eggs and other dairy products and then turkey and chicken. I am just concerned that he will not get the essential nutrients he needs from meat and dairy strictly from plants. I have also read that soy is not necessarily great for you either. How can we replace the amino acids from turkey, chicken and fish? What about the healthy fat from whole milk for there brain development? We just want to make sure he continues to be a healthy child and gets the nutrition he needs.
