The very latest is around age six, since there are systems in place to help children find their powers. Even really subtle powers, like Eleanor’s, would be discovered early.
Very, very rarely they’ll get it wrong. In that circumstance, they evaluate on a case-by-case basis. A child with a combat-worthy power would be returned, but a non-combat one wouldn’t.

See, this, I think, is what I love about Kronk. On the shallowest surface level, he fills the “low IQ sidekick” role. But ONLY on the shallowest surface level.
I’d have to watch the movie again to go into any detail, but Kronk is actually the smartest damn person IN this movie. There’s nothing he doesn’t know, he’s got all this specialized knowledge, dude is probably horrifically well read. He’s NOT stupid, he’s just eager to please and doesn’t have a proper “No” threshhold.
In the second gif, he’s like – “No, wait, I’m not who you think I am.”
Then in the fourth, he’s like – “Oh my God, the cook is gone and she’s got all these orders. If somebody doesn’t cook that up people are going to get upset! They’ll take it out on this poor woman who’s been on her feet all day and doesn’t deserve their wrath! And…oh my God…PEOPLE WILL BE HUNGRY!”
Then in the sixth gif he’s like – “NOT ON KRONK’S WATCH!”
He’s doing the right thing and he knows it. No judgement, no condescension, just always a moment to register the task at hand, determine the most logical course of action to completing it, and then it’s GO GO GO.
His only problem is that he never stops to ask himself whether this is actually his problem to solve, or whether people are taking advantage of him, and I love him for it.
Once again, I (Maureen) see a Great Flame that I have come to know as
the Heart of God the Father. He says: “Your country* is experiencing a
historic fire** on the West Coast. Once again, I remind you that every
adversity is allowed by Me for the good of souls and towards their
salvation. I am the Master Architect of every soul’s journey towards
Heaven. I put just what he needs in order to pursue personal holiness
in every present moment. Never waste time in asking ‘why’ something is
happening. Trust in My Grace to see you through every challenge.”
“Mankind often does not understand My Will, as he sees only the
cross and not the victory that the cross leads to. Every sin carries
the soul farther away from understanding My Will. If you concoct
notions of how you would do things differently, then you are not living
in My Will. In your acceptance of present moment events, is your
surrender to My Will. Consider the innocence of the little child who
accepts everything readily and trusts in his parents to see him through
troubles. Imitate this attitude. You will find peace therein.”

But know that the Lord has set apart the godly for himself;
the Lord hears when I call to him.

Jesus Blesses Little Children
Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on
them and pray. The disciples rebuked the people; but Jesus said, “Let
the children come to me, and do not hinder them; for to such belongs the
kingdom of heaven.” And he laid his hands on them and went away.

All people in the camps are evaluated on powers and personality. Jill and her father were knocked out on the latter; Toby is just a jerk who was deemed likely to argue with his commander, and Jill was determined to be too independent.
Omfg remember Loki asking Tony in Avengers – “How will your friends have time to fight me when they will be busy fighting you?”
He was right. Holy shit he was proven right down the line. It was Loki’s sceptre that had the Mind Stone that brought up the entire AoU mess so his spectre did work in making the team fight Tony in an indirect way. And in CACW almost the entire team, the entire Avengers 2012 team at least, goes against Tony which leads to all of them breaking up later. That makes them unprepared for Thanos when he comes because they had been too busy fighting each other.
Loki was right. Tony’s team didn’t have time for the enemy because they were busy fighting him. Holy shit callback.
Pearl, I’m literally going to fight you wtf
Okay but you know what makes it even better? Tony’s best reply to Loki saying he has an army is that they have a Hulk. To which Loki comments that he thought the ‘beast had wandered off’.
GUESS WHO DIDN’T MAKE AN APPEARANCE IN THE END (during IW) WHEN TONY WAS HOPING HE WOULD??? HULK!!
Tony leaves himself out of his list of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes and ends up away from the rest of the original team on Titan.
→ “Well, toward morning the conversation turned on the Eucharist, which I, being the Catholic, was obviously supposed to defend. [Mary McCarthy] said when she was a child and received the Host, she thought of it as the Holy Ghost, He being the ‘most portable’ person of the Trinity; now she thought of it as a symbol and implied that it was a pretty good one. I then said, in a very shaky voice, ‘Well, if it’s a symbol, to hell with it.’ That was all the defense I was capable of but I realize now that this is all I will ever be able to say about it, outside of a story, except that it is the center of existence for me; all the rest of life is expendable.”
– Flannery O’Connor
“If these are just sacred symbols, then Catholics are not only idolaters but they’re the stupidest idolaters in history. They’re bowing down to bread and they’re worshiping wine thinking that it’s Almighty God. How could they be that stupid? And more importantly, how could the Holy Spirit fall asleep for 1500 years and wait until the Protestant Reformers to tell us that that was a mistake. On the other hand, if the Catholics are right, then we Protestants who don’t believe in the real presence are missing out on the most amazing and astounding and intimate union with God that is possible in this life.”
This happens all the darned time. His wife, Queen Alexandra, had a scar on her neck, so she wore choker necklaces and high-necked blouses… and so did everyone else.
Louis XIII and Louis XIV started wearing wigs because they were going bald… and so did everyone else.
Basically all of fashion history is that scene in Princess Diaries where Mia gets brain freeze so everyone tries to get brain freeze.
