At the airport (going to Switzerland) there was a little boy about 3 wandering around on his own.At fist I just though his wandered a few feet, but I look for his guardian for about 10 mins and couldn't find anyone. Asked everyone.I didn't want petofiles taking him away,and I had a flight to catch,I was running out of time the flight WAS at 5pm(the flight is delayed,so I'm sitting at the gate, waiting,and typing this).I took him to a security desk,and I feel really bad.He should be safe there, but what if his guardian can't find him,what if he never sees them again. The Security guy saw that I was in a rush and said "I'm guessing he's not yours" with a chuckle.There aren't many 15 year olds with kids. lol.I told the Security guy everything, and he said "no prob, it'll be alright, 'eh" to the kid.I'm going to have the whole night to think about it; 8 babies on the flight, they'll cry and keep me awake. hope he's alright..say something to reassure me. Did I do the right thing?

You did the right thing. You may have saved that kid from who know's what. Once his parents or gaurdian relized he was missing Security is probably the 1st place they looked. And guess what that means they found him really fast. Good job.

You did the right thing. The security guys have been through background checks and are not pedophiles. They took good care of the little kid. If the guardian didn't show up the security guys know who to call. It is normal to feel protective of a lost child, even if you have only a short encounter with the kid. You did the right thing and the security guys followed through and did the right thing for the kid also.

You should have claimed him, brought him on your flight home (just tell the airline personnel he's under two years), and trained him to be your pet adopted brother. Who's gonna complain?

you did the right thing, you took the kid to the proper authorities. it's the parents who need their ears boxed.
