WATANABE, J.

These appeals by Mother and Father1 (collectively, Parents) stem from a termination of parental rights (TPR) proceeding in which the Family Court of the First Circuit (the family court) terminated Parents’ parental rights in them daughter, Jane Doe (Daughter), and awarded permanent custody of Daughter to the Department of Human Services, State of Hawai'i (DHS).
