Although I'm not a native speaker of English, an adult would look back on their childhood and say: I made mistakes during my childhood.

I've made mistakes during my childhood could be used by a child. That's what the present perfect suggests!

I also want to know if what I told you is correct. Let's wait for an answer we can trust!
