Can you Describe briefly what is meant by the statement the 'welfare of the child is paramount'?

This means that the welfare of the child, (his or her best interests), is the most important thing of all regardless of other issues. The child's health, emotional stability, safety, etc, all come *first* in whatever issues are being decided, and grown-ups come last. This phrase is usually used in court situations when deciding what is best for the child, *not* the parents when there is either divorce or custody disputes. It reminds the feuding "grown-ups" that there is a child (or children) involved and that child's welfare comes way before any of the "grown-ups'" concerns.
