In re Joshua A. CA4/3
A.A. (Mother) appeals from the juvenile court’s termination of her parental rights to her now two-year-old son, Joshua A., at the permanency placement hearing. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26, all further statutory references are to the Welfare and Institutions Code.) Mother maintains the court erred by finding the section 366.26, subdivision (c)(1)(B)(i), parental bond exception did not apply to avoid termination of parental rights. After failing to reunify with Joshua after 22 months, Mother maintains they share a “substantial positive emotional attachment,” and the minor should not be adopted by the family he has bonded with. Mother also appeals the juvenile court’s denial of her petition for modification under section 388, asking the court to return Joshua to her custody or provide her with additional reunification services. We conclude Mother’s contentions on appeal lack merit, and we affirm the judgment.
