Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Jones County, Joan M. Black, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., Buller, J., and Scott, S.J. Opinion by Scott, S.J. (9 pages)
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to two children, L.S., born in 2019, and V.S., born in 2019. She contends the State failed to prove the grounds for termination cited by the juvenile court, termination is not in the best interests of the children, and her parental rights should not be terminated due to the closeness of the parent-child bond. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the termination of the mother’s parental rights.
