Before: Saad, P.J., and Hoekstra and Markey, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent-appellant as of right from a family court order terminating her parental rights to the minor children pursuant to MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j); MSA 27.3178(598.19b) (3)(c)(i), (g) and (j). We affirm. The family court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). We further find no clear error in the family court’s determination that termination of respondent-appellant’s parental rights was not clearly contrary to the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 -1­ NW2d 156 (1997). Thus, the family court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the children. Id. Affirmed. /s/ Henry William Saad /s/ Joel P. Hoekstra /s/ Jane E. Markey -2­
