Description

SYLLABUS BY THE COURT "W.Va. Code, 49-1-3(a) [, as amended], in part, defines an abused child to include one whose parent knowingly allows another
person to commit the abuse. Under this standard, termination of parental rights is usually upheld only where the parent takes
no action in the face of knowledge of the abuse or actually aids or protects the abusing parent." Syl. pt. 3, In re Betty
J.W., 179 W.Va. 605, 371 S.E.2d 326 Termination of parental rights of a parent of an abused child is authorized under W.Va.
Code, 49-6-1 to 49-6-10, as amended, where such parent contends nonparticipation in the acts giving rise to the termination
petition but there is clear and convincing evidence that such nonparticipating parent knowingly took no action to prevent
or stop such acts to protect the child. Furthermore, termination of parental rights of a parent of an abused child is authorized
under W.Va. Code, 49-6-1 to 49-6-10, as amended, where such nonparticipating parent supports the other parent's version as
to how a child's injuries occurred, but there is clear and convincing evidence that such version is inconsistent with the
medical evidence.
