The General Assembly finds that:

(1) The best interests of a child are promoted by having persons in the child’s life who manifest a deep concern for the child’s growth and development;

(2) The best interests of a child are promoted when a child has as many persons loving and caring for the child as possible; and

(3) The best interests of a child are promoted when the child is part of a loving, supportive and stable family, whether that family is a nuclear, extended, split, blended, single parent, adoptive or foster family.
