A father appeals the termination of his parental rights to his two children, born in 2014 and 2015. He complains the children were not placed with their paternal grandmother upon removal, argues termination is not in the children’s best interests, and requests an additional six months to work toward reunification. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the termination of the father’s parental rights.
