Manifest Weight of the Evidence; Motion for Permanent Custody; Reasonable Case Planning. Decision to terminate parental rights was not against the manifest weight of the evidence when the Agency showed that father's mental health issues were interfering with his ability to complete the case plan and would not likely change. Agency proved by clear and convincing evidence that termination of parental rights was in the best interests of the children. Agency presented evidence that it had offered services to help Father reunify with the children and despite its reasonable efforts, father did not utilize the services offered to make reunification possible.
