This case focuses on the termination of parental rights of Violet B. (“Mother”) and Coy B.
(“Father”) to their Child, Kaylee B. Mother gave birth to Kaylee in June 2022, and the
parents had a second child, Madison B., in December 2023.1 The Tennessee Department
of Children’s Services (“DCS”) sought termination of Mother’s and Father’s parental rights
to each child in two separate petitions filed in the Sevier County Juvenile Court (“trial
court”).2 The trial court conducted a joint hearing on both petitions and entered two
separate orders terminating Mother’s and Father’s parental rights to each child. The trial
court entered an order terminating Mother’s and Father’s parental rights to Kaylee based
upon two statutory grounds. The trial court further determined by clear and convincing
evidence that termination of Mother’s and Father’s parental rights was in Kaylee’s best
interest. Father has appealed. Discerning no reversible error, we affirm.
