That includes children listed on a parent's passport who must have their own passport. Travelers without machine-readable passports will require a valid USA entry visa.

Machine Readable Passports;
What should I know about machine-readable passports and family travel?
Families seeking to enter the United States under the Visa Waiver Program need to obtain an individual machine-readable passport for each traveler, including infants(babies under age of 2). Machine-readable passports typically have biographic data for only one traveler in the machine-readable zone. Because of the October 26, 2004 requirement that passport data be presented in machine-readable format, children included in family or parents’ passports may be denied visa-free entry into the United States since only the primary traveler’s biographic data is included in the machine-readable zone of the passport.
