In addition, respondent-appellant failed to show that termination of her parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5). Therefore, the juvenile court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights. In re Hall-Smith, supra. Affirmed. /s/ William C. Whitbeck /s/ Gary R. McDonald /s/ Timothy G.
