When you reach the age of accountability you are considered responsible for your actions. However, the exact definition of what is "wrong" is usually categorised by society and usually focuses on what harms society. Thus, most early habits developed are what society considers to be the "right" thing. However, there is always room for outside influences... I guess it would also depend on whether you live in a moral society or not... however, in the end, it all comes down to that particular society and those particular outside influences.

Sorry to inform you but habits should be monitored by parents and only good ones taught while growing up so that there are no bad habits at age of accountability.
Lousy parents create lousy citizens....

Because when one grows up, one is expected to become accountable.
Personal discipline and force of will is to be applied to those bad habits, in order to overcome them.
God promises to eternally reward everyone who overcomes the world through him.
That's the whole point of life.

You may be on the verge of opening the "spare the rod, spoil the child" debate.

I think simply asking the age old philosophy question "why" would be easier to answer.
