|||||

Assuming claim was preserved, State made reasonable efforts, including substance abuse treatment and skill development, to reunite parents with son, but they responded negatively to services.

|||||
Overview: An order terminating a father's parental rights pursuant to Iowa Code § 232.116(1)(h) (2005) was upheld where the father visited his son just two times after being released from prison, stopped complying with parenting skills education, and was arrested for violating the terms of his parole; the father was facing a lengthy term of incarceration.

COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA, April 25, 2007, Filed

|||||
Overview: Court did not err in terminating mother's parental rights to her children under Iowa Code § 232.116(1)(e) and (h) and in denying her request for more time to pursue reunification; she would only have had a couple of weeks more than she actually had which would have made no difference given her lack of progress during the nearly six months she had.

Overview: An order terminating a father's parental rights pursuant to Iowa Code § 232.116(1)(e)(3) (2005) was upheld because although the father visited the child during the pendency of the case, he did not maintain significant and meaningful contact with the child or establish and maintain a place of importance in the child's life.

Overview: District court properly terminated mother's parental rights to her children based on Iowa Code § 232.116(1)(d) based on neglect and the imminent likelihood of harm from physical abuse; as of the termination hearing, those circumstances continued to exist.

|||||
Overview: District court properly found that permanent placement with a child's grandparents pursuant to Iowa Code § 232.104(2)(d)(1) (2005) was in the child's best interest because, using the parents' past performance as a predictor of future performance, there was convincing evidence that they were unable to provide a safe and nurturing environment.

| In the Interest of M.S., No. 7-219 / 07-0291,
COURT OF APPEALS OF IOWA, April 25, 2007, Filed

|||||
Overview: Clear and convincing evidence showed that mother's receipt of services would not correct the conditions that led her to neglect her children within a reasonable period of time. Coupled with mother's admission that she was only seeking treatment to have her children returned to her care and not for herself, mother's prognosis was poor.
