¶1 J.A., the biological mother of V.F.A., appeals the Thirteenth Judicial District Court’s Order terminating her parental rights and awarding permanent custody of the child to the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services, Child and Family Services Division (DPHHS). We affirm.

¶2 J.A. presents the following issues on appeal:

1. Did the District Court make clearly erroneous Findings of Fact amounting to an abuse of discretion?

2. Did the District Court err by not making any findings or conclusions determining V.F.A. was a youth in need of care by clear and convincing evidence?
