Instruction regarding paragraphs typically starts at ages seven to eight, so that ten year old children have anywhere from one to four years practice depending on when exactly they started and how recently their tenth birthday was. As such, the above is not what one would expect stylistically from a ten year old due to their capacity to write paragraphs. If anything, it is an extended paragraph with no line breaks that is to be expected, as essays are usually not taught until age eleven or twelve, and aren't normalized until age thirteen or fourteen; this leads to what should be several paragraphs being a single inordinately long one.
I have also never seen ellipsis abuse within that age category. Punctuation errors tend to be in commas and apostrophes, with the occasional grotesque misuse of parenthesis. There's no reasons to insult ten year old kids for any of these actions.
