In the Matter OF Derrick B.

Case Number
M2008-01162-COA-R3-PT

The trial court terminated the parental rights of Ethel B. (“Mother”) and David B. (“Father”) to their son, Derrick B. (the “Child”), who was 11 at the time of trial. The trial court found, by clear and convincing evidence, that several grounds for terminating Mother’s and Father’s parental rights existed and that termination is in the best interest of the Child. Mother and Father appeal, challenging the trial court’s finding that clear and convincing evidence of grounds to terminate were established at trial. Mother and Father also challenge the trial court’s finding that clear and convincing evidence was presented that termination of the parents’ rights is in the Child’s best interest. We affirm.
