1Opinion of the Court

HOLLAND, Justice.

The respondent-appellant, Nicholas D. Barr, appeals from the decision of the Family Court terminating his parental rights over his daughter, Nancy. 1 Barr raises three arguments on appeal. First, he contends that the Family Court erred in finding that he intentionally abandoned Nancy. Second, he contends that the Family Court erred in finding that he failed to plan for Nancy’s physical needs and mental and emotional health and development. Third, he contends that the Family Court erred in finding that the termination of his parental rights was in the best interest of Nancy.
