Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for O'Brien County, Shawna L. Ditsworth, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Greer and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Greer, J. (7 pages)
S.G., the mother, appeals from the permanency order establishing a guardianship for her two children. OPINION HOLDS: Because the children could not be returned to their mother’s care, there was no evidence that barriers to reunification would be dismantled within six months, and the guardianship was in the children’s best interests, we affirm.
