JUSTICE LUND, specially concurs: The trial court’s finding of contempt and resulting sanctions were justified. The conduct of the petitioner hardly indicated an interest in the welfare of the child. Time and again, when dealing with the problems of children, our courts find the moral breakdown of the family is a major cause. Here, after oral argument, respondent gave up his quest — because he believed in the best interest of the child. He is probably right, considering the turmoil related to our court. On return to the trial court, I suggest the main concern now be for the child — not the justified sanction. Hopefully, the child will overcome this hideous period of her life.
