I have done this before but I was sure to make a hand motion imitating lifting and raised eyebrows first, and wait for a nod. No matter how much someone's struggling I'm not going to assume their ok with me touching their stuff or putting my hand near their kid. We goblins can't be too careful.

    Same here.

    No matter what, one can't just assume the other person wants it or even will be alright with it - it's not up to me to decide what's best for others hence I offer my help, not impose anything on anybody.

    If they don't want it (which happens at times), fair enough.
