The child is not old enough to dress itself. it the right reflexive pronouns?

The sentence is grammatically correct, but it could be improved by using a more natural and idiomatic phrase.

Here are a few ways to rephrase it:

* The child is too young to dress itself.

* The child is not old enough to dress independently.

* The child needs help getting dressed.

These options avoid the awkwardness of "dress itself" and convey the meaning more clearly.
