In 2004, the mother tested positive for drugs while giving birth to S.E. In 2008, S.E. was “removed from the mother.” The record does not reflect any formal dependency proceeding regarding S.E., but it does state that the mother “failed to reunify with” her. The maternal grandmother (grandmother) became S.E.’s legal guardian.
Also in 2008, the mother tested positive for drugs while giving birth to N.A. N.A. and an older child, J.S., were removed from her custody. They were declared dependents, based in part on substance abuse and domestic violence. In 2011, the mother’s parental rights to them were terminated.
