    In the Interest of W.Y., Jr., a child. W.Y., Sr., Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES and the Guardian Ad Litem, Appellees.
    No. 98-01318.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    Dec. 23, 1998.
    Gregory F. Boyer, Tampa, for Appellant.
    Robert A Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Dyann W. Beaty, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.
    Nancy J. Faggianelli of Carlton, Fields, Ward, Emmanuel, Smith & Cutler, P.A, Tampa, for Guardian Ad Litem.
   PER CURIAM.

The father of W.Y., Jr. challenges the trial court’s order terminating his parental rights. We affirm the final judgment in this matter because after reviewing the record we conclude that the Department of Children and Families met its burden of establishing the need for termination of parental rights by clear and convincing evidence.

Affirmed.
