1Opinion of the CourtSuarez, J.

Based on the competent, substantial evidence before it, the trial court correctly terminated O.M.’s parental rights as to the special needs child, and we find there was no violation of due process throughout. See T.P. v. Dep’t. of Children & Family Servs., 935 So.2d 621 (Fla. 3d DCA 2006) (holding standard of review for the sufficiency of evidence supporting termination of parental rights is whether order is supported by substantial competent evidence).

Affirmed.
