P.A.B. M.E.B. M.A.B. Appeal G.B. and P.B‪.‬

This is an appeal from an order terminating the parental rights of appellants father G.B. and mother P.B. (Parents). We are asked to apply the Grounds for Involuntary Termination provision of the Adoption Act -- specifically, 23 Pa. C.S. § 2511(a)(5) -- to loving parents who have an irremediable incapacity. In doing so we must examine how the parental incapacity impacts upon both the physical and emotional dimensions to the childrens needs and welfare. In this case we must take into account the existing parentchild bond, an undisputed fact of record. We conclude that a proper application of the statute mandates against termination; maintaining the natural parent-child relationship best serves the childrens needs and welfare. Therefore we reverse the order terminating the Parents rights.
