In Re Destiney S.

Syllabus

The Department of Children's Services filed a petition to terminate the mother's parental rights to her five children on multiple grounds. The trial court found that grounds had been proven and that termination of the mother's parental rights was in the children's best interests. The mother of all five children appeals. For the reasons stated below, we vacate that part of the judgment terminating Mother's parental rights to Destiney S. and Serenity S. because they attained the age of majority prior to the entry of the final judgment. As for the three youngest children, Aurora R., Kanan R., and Kyaion R., we affirm the trial court's determination that grounds for termination of Mother's parental rights were proven and that termination of Mother's parental rights is in their best interests. Accordingly, we affirm the termination of Mother's parental rights to Aurora R., Kanan R., and Kyaion R.
