PER CURIAM:� Shemika Jones appeals the termination of her parental rights to her minor children.� The family court found Jones had failed to support the children.� S.C. Code Ann. � 20-7-1572(4) (Supp. 2001).� The family court also found it to be in the child�s best interests to terminate Jones� parental rights and place the children for adoption.
Pursuant to Ex parte Cauthen, 291 S.C. 465, 354 S.E.2d 381 (1987), Jones� counsel attached to the record of the family court proceedings an affidavit stating his belief that the appeal lacks merit.� Jones did not file a pro se response to counsel�s affidavit.
