AC 47605 - In re Zarirai S. ("The respondent mother, Crystal S.,
appeals from the judgments of the trial court rendered
in favor of the petitioner, the Commissioner of Children
and Families, terminating her parental rights with
respect to her minor children, Z and L. On appeal, the
respondent claims that the court improperly determined that she had failed to achieve a sufficient degree
of rehabilitation because (1) the court’s determination
was not supported by the evidence, (2) the court impermissibly compared the parenting of the respondent with
that of the children’s foster parents, and (3) the court failed to apply the proper legal standard by ‘‘add[ing]
a requirement of a ‘guarantee’ that the [respondent] must be able to rehabilitate within six months.’’ We
affirm the judgments of the trial court.")
