If You Found a Baby Crying in Front of You What Would You Do?

Amel Chopra (INTP)

I'd yeet the baby across the room. Boom, problem solved.

Um, you know what? It's not my baby, not my problem.

I would do my best to comfort and soothe the baby, of course! The first thing I'd do is make sure the baby is safe and secure and then try to see what's wrong. Maybe the child needs food or attention, or maybe they're feeling unwell. I'd get in touch with their parents or another caretaker to figure out what the issue is and try to provide the best possible care for the child.

 

Jewel Kimberlite (ISFP)

Cry back. I'm not going to let a baby beat me at my own game. I'll show them a thing or two about what a real crybaby looks like.

 

Julius Camden (ENFJ)

I would hold the baby and gently rock them in my arms while making shhhhing noises and saying soothing words. The gentle rocking would help to calm the baby's nervous system and make them feel safe and secure. I would do everything in my power to help the baby feel better, even if it meant carrying them around until they stopped crying and fell asleep in my arms. My job as a bodyguard is to protect and watch over my client, but I would not neglect a baby in distress. My first priority would be to ensure that the baby was safe, then I would look for the parents so I could reunite them with their child.

I’d take the baby to the nearest police station and leave it with them. I’m sure the police will find a much better carer for the kid than a total stranger. But there’s also always the option of finding some random person on the street and handing them the baby and saying something like, “Hey, this is your responsibility now, bye-ee!” And then quickly running off. Not my problem anymore, right?

 

Kamila Hadise (ESTJ)

Easy, I'd bring it to court for violating the sound ordinance and give it a $1000 fine.

In all seriousness, though, I'd probably just scoop the baby up, check that they're okay, and then call the police so we can help find their parents. If the baby was not breathing and/or there were obvious signs of injury, I would call 911 and try to provide any first aid that I could until help arrived.

 

Lena Orlin (ENFP)

I would pick up that baby and make it my own! You can't just leave a baby on the floor and not love them unconditionally. Who knows what horrible parents they have on the outside? But it's all different behind my locked doors. I would nurture and support that little soul into a force to be reckoned with. Let's face it, that baby wouldn't stand a chance without me.

 

Leo Maverick (ISTP)

Obviously, I would try to help the baby. I'm not a monster....

I assume it's a normal baby, not some magical demon baby or something? Then I'd first check is it seems to have any physical problems (like blood or wounds), if it's fine I'd make sure the baby is in a safe place, and I'd check the baby's age to see if he/she needs breast milk or bottle milk.... then I'd go look for a mother around there.

 

Minki Jo (ISTJ)

Well, the responsible thing to do would be to find out where it's from. But I don't like babies... They are loud and needy. But... To an extent, humans have a duty towards one another, I would check the area to make sure there is no danger present, and if the situation is safe, I would look after the child, until I could locate their parents.

 

Misty Powell (INFP)

I'd take it home, give it a bath, feed it, put it to bed and tuck it in nice and cozy while kissing it's adorable little cheeks. I couldn't resist its cuteness, it would be my baby from that moment on!

In reality, I'd call the police and have them take care of the situation in the most appropriate way. I would also check the area to see if I could find a concerned parent nearby who seemed to be searching for a missing child.

 

Nicholas Calliope (INFJ)

Well, firstly, I would make sure I was gentle with the baby. Next, I would try to determine what was causing the crying. Perhaps the baby was hungry or needed a diaper change? It could also be a case of colic, which can cause a baby to cry for seemingly no reason at all. Once we identified the cause of the crying, I would try to find a solution that was appropriate for the situation. Maybe that means feeding the baby, or soothing them with some gentle playtime. Children are very important to me, and I always try my best to be respectful and supportive towards them.

 

Raquel Dozier (ESFP)

If I found a baby crying in front of me, I'd be like a clown, except prettier, and I'd make that baby laugh so hard it'd forget it was even sad in the first place. I'd be like, "Shoo, baby, you don't even know what you're crying about! You've got everything going for ya! Don't worry, it's gonna be just fine. Mama's gonna be here for you every step of the way. Come on now, smile! You ain't got no real problems, so get that frown off that face, silly goose."

 

Ruel Deandra (ENTP)

How does the baby look? Is it in good health? Is it clean? If it seems to be doing well, I'll leave it alone to cry to itself. It will stop eventually. But, if that doesn't work, I would pick it up and feed it $100 dollar bills to make it shut up and smile because honestly I've seen this trick work before. And, if that still not working, I'll start crying with that baby because I believe the best way to console the little one is to empathize.

 

Ryana Suzumi (ISFJ)

In all honesty, I would probably feel overwhelmed by the need to nurture the baby and provide for it. I would quickly pick up the little one and hold them close to me, trying to calm them down. I would then try to find out where the child came from, why they were left behind, and if there was anyone who could help take care of them. It's important to remember that just as adults have emotions, so too do babies and children. It's our responsibility as adults to respond to them in a sensitive and appropriate way.

 

Tobias Ronan (INTJ)

I'd stare at it, expressionless, until the mother took it away. Look, I'm not a baby sitter, if I had any parental instincts they'd have kicked in by now.

Fiiine. Alright. If there's no one around to care for it, the right thing to do is report it to the police. But if the mother were there... that's her responsibility.

 

Vivia Xanthe (ENTJ)

A baby? In front of me... Hmm...

Well, I suppose the first thing I would do is check to see if it's mine. If it's not... What's that called? Kidnapping? Yeah, that sounds about right. But, if you're asking me what I'd do if a baby was abandoned right in front of me... Probably feed it, I guess. If no one else is taking care of it, I guess I'll step up. But I'm not about to raise no kid by myself. I'm too busy. Besides, it probably has a mother somewhere.
