English term or phrase: people's best interests
Thats a game for kids so I was wondering if it was better to use simple words like "le bien être d'autrui" or the more technical way "dans l'intérêt supérieur d'autrui". I just wanna be sure the meaning will stay the same...

What do you think ?

Here is the complete sentence:
... he always has other people's best interests at heart

French translation:les intérêts des autres lui tiennent toujours à coeur
Explanation:
il y a en fait plusieurs possibilités en fonction de ce qui précède et suit... p.ex:

il pense toujours au bien des autres / d'autrui / aux autres, etc.

par contre je ne mettrais pas "bien-être" ni "dans l'intérêt supérieur d'autrui"
