OPINION OF THE COURT
Alexander, J.
The common issue presented on these appeals is whether the evidence adduced in each case supported a finding that the incarcerated parent "permanently neglected” his child within the meaning of Social Services Law § 384-b (7) (a), thus justifying the termination of his parental rights and the concomitant freeing of his child for adoption. For the reasons that follow, we conclude that the termination of parental rights was, in each case, proper and supported by clear and convincing evidence.
