Court of Appeals of Minnesota October 9, 2001, C8-01-147 (In Re Child of E.V.)

SCHUMACHER, ROBERT H., Judge

(dissenting).

I respectfully dissent. As the trial court stated in finding of fact 13.0, mother “has been unwilling to meet [L.S.V.’s] basic needs and her actions say (loud and clear) that she does not want her son returned to her home.” The record readily supports the trial court’s conclusion that termination of parental rights is in the best interests of L.S.V.
