FARRELL, Associate Judge:
This appeal by the District of Columbia from the dismissal of a neglect petition presents the sole issue of whether a "sibling" for purposes of D.C.Code § 16-2301(9)(E) (1997) (partly defining a "neglected child") includes a child who is neither the biological nor the adopted brother or sister of the children alleged to be neglected. We hold that it does not, and affirm the order dismissing on that ground.
