Opinion

KREMER, P. J.

Agatha B. appeals the juvenile court’s order declaring her children Christina and Daniel B. dependents (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 360, subd. (c)), removing them from her physical custody (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 361, subd. (b)(1)), and placing them with their father Walter B. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 361.2, subd. (b).) She contends the court erred in appointing her a guardian ad litem and in accepting the guardian ad litem’s waiver of her due process rights. We agree with the second contention.
