Similar to jonathanwallace's point, I would argue that such self reflection, as a component of "executive function," isn't fully achievable or fully developed for most individuals until they're in their 20s [0]. Nevertheless, it's crucial that we support the development of cognitive skills related to self-reflection, inhibitory control, and so on even in children whose prefrontal cortexes may not be physically developed enough to consistently make appropriate judgements.
