Can a children's room be in the East-South-East?
Yes, for small children below 12 years there is no problem; the belief that they will over-churn there is a myth. Adults' rooms should not be there, but for a PhD or research scholar the ESE is the best zone.

If a house has four members, whose kundli should be used for its vastu?
Primarily the grih swami's, the person whose money is going into the house, because the house affects the owner and his next three generations; do not go by the name the property is registered in, such as a daughter. The facing and main door are chosen from the grih swami's chart, for example North if his Mercury is exalted or his North-side planets are strong. Where a child sleeps or studies is decided from the child's own chart: if the child's Mercury is weak, seat him in the South instead of the North, following the 180-degree rule for a weak planet.
The 5th lord is Mars but the child studies in the West. Is that wrong?
