First one has to have a knowledge of what sin is, that what one is doing is wrong. The Lord has set down His law that any child under the age of eight cannot sin, for Satan cannot tempt them.
After the age of eight a child has reached the age of accountability.
Even after the child has reach the age of accountability it is most unlikely that they will commit a mortal sin. There lack of understanding is still limited. To commit a mortal sin is to have the Holy Spirit depart from that person until they repent. Again, a child under the age of eight has no cause to repent for they are not capable of sinning.
