Some other Christians also believe we need saving, not just from our own sins, from the sin of Adam but believe that God gives some grace toward children, that are not of the age of accountability.

I believe we are born with a fleshly body that loves pleasure but we are not guilty of sin or wrath, until we actually sin, which I believe means to use our bodies or minds to oppose God, which we all do.
Perhaps. But then what will be different about us when the Earth is made into a paradise? Will we act any better then?

I am curious how you would answer Ecce Homo's points.
