In Re Jeremiah S.
Syllabus
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to her two children. Following a bench trial, the trial court found that clear and convincing evidence existed to support the statutory grounds of: (1) severe child abuse, Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-113(g)(4) (2) abandonment by willful failure to support, Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-113 (g)(14) (3) abandonment by wanton disregard, Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-102(1)(A)(iv) and (4) persistence of conditions, Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-113(g)(3)(A). The court also found that termination was in the best interest of the children. We affirm the trial court.
