In re R.M.
Mother appeals from a judgment terminating her parental rights to three children, R.M., A.G., and G.D. (Welf. & Inst. Code,[1] § 366.26.) The children became dependents due to physical abuse of two of the children, and domestic violence in the home. After an incident between mother’s oldest child, S.R.,[2] and G.D., Sr., the father of G.D., Jr., G.D., Sr. was required to move out of the family home. Mother eventually was allowed unsupervised visits with the children providing G.D., Sr. was not present in the residence, but the Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) learned that mother had allowed G.D., Sr. back into the home when the children were present. At the 12-month review hearing, mother’s services were terminated and a section 366.26 hearing was set. Prior to the section 366.26 hearing, mother filed a petition for modification (§ 388) which was denied. The court terminated parental rights and mother appealed.
On appeal, mother argues that the court erred (1) in denying her section 388 petition, and (2) in terminating her parental rights. We affirm.
