But if I reach out to the person I can easily accrue karma from them. If 
I take full responsibility for one of my staff in their job then what 
happens to them becomes my karma as I flow it from them on to me to 
resolve. Normally I won't try to do this and what them to be independent 
and become people in themselves but I do have some babies that like 
their hands to be held a lot.
 
But then it's a result of my attachment to help others or feel sorry for 
others from their emotional pleas. Do I leave a baby to cry or do I give 
it some compassion and attention to make it feel good. If I do this will 
it become attached to me as the source of it's security and comfort. Is 
this my irresponsibility.

How do you know when you are responsible or not. Just to notice 
suffering means you have put attention on to a person or situation and 
put a part of yourself there. You have become responsible or added to 
the event even if it's in a miniscule way.

If the judgement or action is on to the other person or thing yes. But 
the flip side is we leave ourselves in a position to receive the message 
so to lead us in to judgement. When we are not 100% whole we are open to 
receiving stuff we don't always want. When there is a block or a gap in 
our system then it's an opening for stuff to flow from the outside to 
us. When we cannot resolve this easily our attention gets stuck on it 
and for me I sink into thought and judgement as that is what I've been 
trained to do from when I could first say Bahhhh! Re-training to 
surrender everything is the process for me.

Well this is a paradox. Did irresposibility come from responsibility. 
Did goddess create this facet of our self. Free will vs. Fate (again!).
 
"Karma follows responsibility" makes a lot of sense to  
> me.
 
Here's my take on this:
 
Karma flows to the easiest open channel like water to the sea.
 
Karma is created when we create against the grain of existing creation. 
(Displacing The Now with a unaligned past or future)
 
Karma can be resolved by flowing in the stream of creation (The Now) and 
dis-creating (surrendering) what is accessible back to the source, the 
nothingness, the fabric of all creation.
