STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS In the Matter of A.Y.H. and M.L.H., Minors. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED September 17, 2002 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 240058 Emmet Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 92-003294-NA SHARON DIPZINSKI, Respondent-Appellant and BRYAN HILL Respondent. Before: Whitbeck, C.J. and Sawyer and Kelly, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent appeals as of right the trial court’s order terminating her parental rights to her children pursuant to MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j).1 We affirm. Respondent does not challenge the finding of the existence of statutory grounds for termination but argues instead that the trial court erred in failing to find that termination was not in the children’s best interests. After thoroughly reviewing the record, including the trial court’s previous efforts in attempting to provide the children with a normal life while maintaining their contact with respondent, we do not find the trial court’s decision clearly erroneous. Thus, the trial court did not err in terminating respondent’s parental rights to the children. MCL 712A.19b(5).
