B
Best Interest of a Child
This is the standard used by the court in cases involving custody and visitation of a child. The court will consider many facts when deciding what is in the best interest of a child, including the child’s emotional and physical needs, each parent’s ability to raise the children, the stability of each parent’s home, and each parent’s plans for the child’s future.
