Lucius Blake Walters (Father) and Barbara Jones, in her capacity as guardian ad litem (GAL), cross appeal a family court order terminating Father's parental rights to his two minor children (Children). Father argues the family court erred in finding clear and convincing evidence supported terminating his parental rights on three statutory grounds: (1) that Children were harmed, and due to the severity or repetition of the abuse or neglect, it was unlikely Father's home could be made safe within twelve months; (2) that Father willfully failed to support Children; and (3) that Children were in foster care for fifteen of the previous twenty two months. He also argues the family court erred in finding termination of parental rights was in Children's best interests. The GAL argues the family court erred in finding clear and convincing evidence did not show Father failed to remedy the conditions that caused Children's removal.
