CHIN, J.
In this case, three young children have been declared dependents of the juvenile court, and efforts to reunify them with their parents have failed. The time has come to establish and implement a permanent plan for them. At this stage of the proceedings, if an appropriate adoptive family is or likely will be available, the Legislature has made adoption the preferred choice. (Welf. & Inst.Code, § 366.26, subds. (b), (c).)
