Tolkien said that the dwarves "experience toil and hunger and hurt of body much more than the other races," so perhaps many dwarves died young? After all, it was still quite impressive to survive to puberty, if we line that up with the given time period. How much more harm would happen to Dwarven children, if their hardships were more serious than even that of the Men?
