( 89 Ill.2d 392, 399, 433 N.E.2d 240.) Decisions of the appellate court since Golf, however, have differed slightly as to the weight which should be accorded the "whole child" and "community of interest" concepts when determining whether to grant a detachment and annexation petition. See City National Bank v. Schott (1983), 113 Ill. App.3d 388, 392, 447 N.E.2d 478 (the court, in examining the standards a regional board should follow, stated that the supreme court has not established any one of these guidelines as an absolute rule and explained that its decision to apply the "whole child" concept was based on the fact that the supreme court considers it proper and many appellate courts have used this factor thereby suggesting that it should, at least, be evaluated during a hearing); Granfield v. Regional Board of School Trustees (1982), 108 Ill. App.3d 703, 706, 439 N.E.2d 497 (the court stated that the most crucial factor requiring the granting of a petition is the location of the area to be detached to the social, recreational, and business associations of the children and parents who reside in this area, the underlying theory behind the "whole child" concept). Petitioners' reliance on the facts of this case as being comparable to other decisions allowing detachment and annexation is misplaced.

A fact based "constellation of interests" approach, which takes into account not only the physical property, but the other factors associated with the plaintiff and his family, finds persuasive support, not only in 1 Restatement (Second), supra, comment (h), but also in many well reasoned cases. See Board of Education of Golf School District No. 67 v. Regional Board of School Trustees, 89 Ill.2d 392, 433 N.E.2d 240 (1982); Dresner v. Regional Board of School Trustees of Kane County, 150 Ill. App.3d 765, 501 N.E.2d 983 (1986); Granfield v. Regional Board of School Trustees of Bureau County, 108 Ill. App.3d 703, 439 N.E.2d 497 (1982); Fowler v. Clayton School District, 528 S.W.2d 955, 958 (Mo.App. 1975). Furthermore, common sense dictates that this approach be followed.

The Board cites three other cases upholding detachment where no children were present in the area. In Granfield v. Regional Board of School Trustees (1982), 108 Ill. App.3d 703, 439 N.E.2d 497, Zejmowicz v. County Board of School Trustees (1971), 133 Ill. App.2d 735, 272 N.E.2d 783, and Board of Education, Troy Consolidated School District No. 30 C v. Will County Board of School Trustees (1971), 132 Ill. App.2d 947, 271 N.E.2d 87, the courts found detachment was proper. In Granfield and Zejmowicz, there was evidence before the Board concerning the educational programs of the school districts involved as well as evidence of the identification of the detachment area with the annexing district.
