Head Matter:
Patricia L. IANNONE, Appellant, v. Guy E. IANNONE, Appellee.
No. 88-1451.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
May 11, 1989.
Mary M. Dunn of Withlacoochee Area Legal Services, Inc., Ocala, for appellant.
Ben Daniel, Jr., Ocala, for appellee.

Opinion:
DAUKSCH, Judge.
We affirm the order of modification in this case because we cannot say that there was such a breach of discretion that a reversal is warranted. The broad discretion given a trial judge in these most-difficult cases is based upon sound case law, Canakaris v. Canakaris, 382 So.2d 1197 (Fla.1980), and common sense. The trial judge has a much better perspective on these matters, with historical knowledge, the witnesses in view, the testimony before him and the experience behind him.
AFFIRMED.
GOSHORN, J., concurs.
SHARP, C.J., dissents with opinion.
