I believe there is a place in Presbyterian thought for "age of accountability" or something along those lines. That place is when a covenant child reaches the age of maturity such that they can examine themselves and be examined by a session for admission to the Lord's Supper. Then, in essence, the child publically confesses his own faith and enters into the vows made on his behalf at baptism.
