In the context of a custody case, the ‘best interest of the child’ is the standard that courts use to decide who will take care of the child. Some of the factors courts look at are the age of the child, the health of the child, the emotional ties between the parents and the child, the ability of the parents to care for the child, and the child’s ties to school, home, and the community.
