"Born good? Babies help unlock the origins of morality." These experiments seem to support that babies are born with an affinity for people that help and are kind, which in turns help their survival.

"Can Babies Tell Right From Wrong? " Studies showing babies preferring kind characters. These studies are to show morality's origins in humans. You don't learn the basics of morality, you are born with them: attraction to kindness, a sense of empathy, and more.
