In re L.D., 380 N.C. 766 (2022)

Held: 
Affirmed
  • This opinion affirms the TPR. There is nothing precedent setting in this opinion, which discusses how the challenged findings were supported by the evidence and how the findings support the conclusion that the children were in care for 12 or more months before the TPR petition as filed by DSS and that mother failed to make reasonable progress to correct the conditions that led to the children’s removal. Mother’s issues included substance use, lack of employment and housing, failure to remain in contact with DSS, attendance at only a few parenting classes.
