Child custody determinations in paternity cases are governed by the "best interest" standard. That is, the best interest of the child is paramount. As in divorce cases with children involved, the judge favors neither the mother nor the father, but the child. Judges in South Florida consider several factors in awarding child custody and parental responsibility.
