Infants are seen at an early age to have helping qualities. In this video it shows an infant, at 18 months of age, when they see a clothes pin drop the infant helps the stranger by picking it up and giving it to them. This maybe proof that altruism is a natural quality, brought on by evolution. Since these helping behaviors are seen at such a young age, when the infant has little life experience, altruism could be quality that is in all of us once we are born.
