Description
Respondent contends that petitioner failed to prove that it exercised diligent efforts to strengthen his relationship with
his 3 year old child. To the contrary, the evidence clearly demonstrates that the agency diligently attempted to reunite respondent
with his daughter, but that he failed to plan for her return and regularly failed to maintain contact with her, only visiting
his child five time between December 1987 and October 1988, despite numerous scheduled visits. The agency repeatedly attempted
to help respondent overcome his drug problem, a major barrier preventing discharge of his child from foster care, but respondent
refused the agency's aid. Notably, the agency also explored the possibility of placing respondent's daughter with his sister,
but she never formally decided to take Christina into her home. Under the circumstances, in light of respondent's failure to realistically plan for the future of his daughter and in light
of his failure to regularly keep in contact with her, there was a sufficient basis to support a determination of permanent
neglect. Matter of Star Leslie, 63 N.Y.2d 136. Moreover, the evidence established that the best interest of Christina would
be served by a termination of respondent's parental rights so that she can be freed for adoption by her foster parents, with
whom Christina has lived for almost her entire life.
