[¶ 1] D.M.K., the mother of C.S.K. and K.L.A.B., appeals from a district court judgment terminating her parental rights. C.O.A., the father of C.S.K., appeals from a district court judgment terminating his parental rights. D.M.K. argues the district court erred by finding the children are deprived, deprivation likely will continue and the children likely will suffer serious physical, mental, moral or emotional harm if placed in D.M.K.'s custody. C.O.A. argues the district court erred by finding deprivation likely will continue and reasonable efforts were made to reunify the family after the children were removed. We summarily affirm under Rule 35.1(a)(2), N.D.R.App.P., concluding the district court was not clearly erroneous in finding the children are deprived, deprivation likely will continue, the children likely will suffer serious physical, mental, moral or emotional harm and reasonable efforts were made to reunite the children with their family.
