At what ages must a follower obey the rules for the sacraments?
The age of reason has been determined by the Church to be around the age of seven, so by that point you should be consciously following the rules of the Church on your own without too much prompting from your parents. This does NOT mean that you don't have to follow the rules for the first seven years of your life, but that, up to that point, your parents are primarily the ones who are responsible, instead of you.The only things that I *know* have specific age ranges which are given by the Church are fasting and abstinence. You must obey the rules for abstinence from the time you turn sixteen until the time you die. You must obey the rules for fasting from the time you turn 21 until 60.The sacraments, however, are always in force.
