dc.description.abstract	The requirement that the best interests of the child should be a primary consideration in all issues involving children is found in almost all human rights documents. There can be no doubt about the importance of the best interests standard when it comes to children, but in practice the contents and extent of this standard are uncertain. To act in accordance with the best interests of a child, it is essential that there are guidelines indicating how the child can and should be protected.	en
