1Opinion of the Court

This is a termination of parental rights case.

After an ore tenus hearing, the Juvenile Court of Madison County ordered the permanent termination of all parental rights of the mother and awarded custody of the child to a state-approved adoption agency, the Association for Guidance, Aid, Placement and Empathy of North Alabama, Inc. (AGAPE).

From this decree the mother, through able counsel, appeals, contending in the main that the evidence does not support the trial court's action in terminating her parental rights. We do not agree and affirm the action of the trial court.
