How is one's conscious formed according to Catholic teachings?
Catholic AnswerThe Moral Conscience is covered in paragraphs 1776 through1845, the formation of conscience is specifically covered in 1783-1785, see below: from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 19941783 Conscience must be informed and moral judgment enlightened. A well-formed conscience is upright and truthful. It formulates its judgments according to reason, in conformity with the true good willed by the wisdom of the Creator. The education of conscience is indispensable for human beings who are subjected to negative influences and tempted by sin to prefer their own judgment and to reject authoritative teachings.1784 The education of the conscience is a lifelong task. From the earliest years, it awakens the child to the knowledge and practice of the interior law recognized by conscience. Prudent education teaches virtue; it prevents or cures fear, selfishness and pride, resentment arising from guilt, and feelings of complacency, born of human weakness and faults. The education of the conscience guarantees freedom and engenders peace of heart.1785 In the formation of conscience the Word of God is the light for our path; (Cf. Psalm 119:105) we must assimilate it in faith and prayer and put it into practice. We must also examine our conscience before the Lord's Cross. We are assisted by the gifts of the Holy Spirit, aided by the witness or advice of others and guided by the authoritative teaching of the Church. (Cf. Dignitatis humanae14).

When do Jehovah witness get baptised?
1Peter 3:21 says that baptism corresponds to the request to God "for a good conscience through the resurrection of Jesus Christ". Jehovah's Witnesses believe that to have a good conscience we need to know what we are doing, have sound judgement. Therefore a person will become a Jehovah's Witness when he or she gets baptized and only after gaining exact knowledge of the only true God, Jehovah and his purpose. That can only happen when you are old enough to know you are making a life decision.
