all I hear is "aspects aspects, factors factors... yes, no, and yes with no, no and yes."
You would or would not do it, the only aspects worth factoring would be those listed and repeated, self-concern mostly (including survival and conscientious sainthood, company, love, sex, or one violent back pay on dinner... lol.). There is also the matter of retribution and judgement if that's your distinction (belief), and if so, see the thread for God and religion.
My impulse would be to get the kid to shade, hang out with him for a while, then hide him in shade with food and some sort of entertainment (like a nice round stick, and/or whatever soft things I might have had with me) and while he's safe and sound I'd scour the island for the parents, or ANYONE else, even a matronly orangutan would be chill to hang with until eventually I was rescued or died.
In the meantime I'd be digging the biggest hole I could and lining it with twigs, sap and anything flat, making an underground house, with a nice wide, deep and irrigated dry trench, as a trap. Reinforce and water seal the roof, and begin on tunnels and chambers.
