In Re: Mack E.

Syllabus

Barbara E. (\Mother\) appeals the termination of her parental rights to the minor children Mack E., Hannah E., Amber E., Donnica B. and Barbara Jean B. (collectively \the Children\). Donald B. (\Father\) appeals the termination of his parental rights to the minor children Donnica B. and Barbara Jean B. We find and hold that the State of Tennessee Department of Children's Services (\DCS\) proved by clear and convincing evidence that grounds existed pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. §§ 36-1-113(g)(1), (g)(2), and (g)(3) to terminate both Mother's and Father's parental rights and that it was proven by clear and convincing evidence that the termination of both Mother's and Father's parental rights was in the Children's best interests. We, therefore, affirm the June 28, 2017 order of the Juvenile Court for Jefferson County (\the Juvenile Court\) terminating Mother's and Father's parental rights to the Children.

Judges: Judge D. Michael Swiney, C.J.
