In Re Cedric G.

Syllabus

The parental rights of Cedric G., Sr. (\Father\) were terminated by the Davidson County Juvenile Court (\the trial court\) on November 20, 2023. Father appeals. We affirm the termination of Father's parental rights as to Cedric G., Jr. (\the Child\) for abandonment by an incarcerated parent for failure to visit, failure to support, and exhibiting a wanton disregard for the Child's welfare; substantial noncompliance with the permanency plans; persistence of conditions; and failure to manifest an ability and willingness to personally assume custody or financial responsibility of the Child. We also affirm the trial court's conclusion that termination is in the Child's best interests.
