In the INTEREST OF: J.R.L. Juvenile Officer, Respondent, v. C.R.A.L., Appellant.
Order
C.R.A.L. (Mother) appeals the trial court's judgment terminating her parental rights to her daughter, J.R.L. (Child). In her sole point on appeal, Mother claims that the trial court failed to make certain statutorily required findings regarding termination of her parental rights. Mother does not argue that the evidence was insufficient to establish grounds for terminating her parental rights; she argues only that the findings contained in the court's judgment did not explicitly address all statutorily required factors. Because Mother failed to preserve her claim for appellate review, we affirm the trial court's judgment.1 Rule 84.16(b).
FOOTNOTES
1. The parental rights of Child's biological father, R.W.L. Jr. (Father), also were terminated by the judgment; we do not address the termination of Father's rights because he is not a party to this appeal.
