1Opinion of the Court

OPINION

KALITOWSKI, Judge.

Appellant S.W. challenges termination of her parental rights to her children, T.W. and G.W., arguing that the district court erred by (1) finding appellant palpably unfit; (2) finding that reasonable and active efforts to unify the family had failed; (3) admitting expert testimony from an unqualified witness and giving that testimony too much weight; and (4) denying a petition to invalidate the termination of parental rights proceedings based on Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) violations that occurred during earlier temporary foster placement proceedings.
