In a Georgia courtroom, a judge made the decision in Soraya Lee, the ex-couples' 3-year-old daughter's "best interest."

The 43-year-old star of the "Fast & the Furious" film series is also required to keep up a $1.9 million life insurance policy with Soraya as the beneficiary and Lee as the trustee.

Gibson was specifically told by the judge how "levelling the economic playing field" is being achieved by this decision.

"Nobody won here, and nobody lost," the judge declared. The child lost because her parents were not present.

The judge urged the parents, "I want you both to love your child, and I want you both to tell your child to love the other parent, because that's how we raise successful people."

The judge also instructed both parents to not talk down on each other in their daughter's presence.
