My understanding is that children don’t recognise the sensation/feel need for the toilet until their bladder is really full whereas adults have learned to recognise the sensation/feel the need earlier.

The other thing is that even once a child learns to recognise the sensation that suggest they might need to go to the bathroom sometime soon..they’ll ignore the sensation and carry on doing whatever is they were doing until they have little choice but to take notice of the sensation/urge and then they’re desperate.
