1Opinion of the Court
MANSFIELD, Justice.
We are called upon to review the outcome of a termination of parental rights proceeding. Acting on the State’s petition, the juvenile court terminated parental rights to a one-year-old child under Iowa Code section 232.116(1)(⅛) (2011). Both parents appealed. They argued the State had failed to prove the grounds for termination by clear and convincing evidence and termination was not in the child’s best interests. See id. §§ 232.116(1)(⅞ )(4), .116(2). The court of appeals reversed the juvenile court.
Upon further review, we now vacate the decision of the court of appeals…
