396 Dept. of Human Services v. A. A. D.

PAGÁN, J.

Mother appeals from judgments terminating her parental rights to her four children, J, A, D, and C. The juvenile court concluded that mother was “unfit by reason of conduct or condition seriously detrimental to the child” and that integration of the children into mother’s home was improbable within “a reasonable time due to conduct or con- ditions not likely to change.” ORS 419B.504. The court fur- ther concluded that termination of parental rights to each of the children was in the best interest of the children. ORS 419B.500.

We have reviewed the record de novo. The evidence in the record supports a determination that mother’s con- duct, which included substance abuse, neglect, and crimi- nal conduct, was seriously detrimental to her children. ORS 419B.504(1). We further conclude, as did the juvenile court, that reintegration to mother’s home is improbable within a reasonable time due to conduct or conditions which are not likely to change, and that termination of mother’s parental rights is in the best interest of each child.

Affirmed.
