Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Scott County, Korie Talkington, District Associate Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Ahlers, P.J., and Badding and Buller, JJ.  Opinion by Ahlers, P.J.  (5 pages)

            A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to her two children.  OPINION HOLDS: Because the mother does not challenge one of the four statutory grounds for termination the juvenile court found satisfied, we affirm on the unchallenged statutory ground.  We also conclude termination is in the children’s best interests and the parent-child bonds are not so strong as to preclude termination.
