JABAR, J.

[¶ 1] The parents of L.E. appeal from a judgment of the Cumberland County Probate Court (Mazziotti, J.) terminating their parental rights. The mother challenges the sufficiency of the evidence terminating her rights, and both parents argue that the court erred in failing to order attempts at rehabilitation and reunification prior to granting the petition for termination. Finding no error, we affirm the judgment.
