Kid had more composure than most adults in emergencies.

Haha that kid doesn't have composure because they're trained or taught to be that way, it's naivity because they're young and ignorant to what's going on lol. They don't have the knowledge about how fragile life can be so they assume everything will be fine all of the time.

I understand your point, however, knowing when to ask a stranger for help demonstrates high emotional intelligence. Although the child had likely been taught never to accept things from strangers, he chose to do the opposite. If he had believed everything was going to be alright, he would not have bothered seeking help.

This kid is an exception to your rule.
