890 So.2d 473 (2004)

In the interest of T.D. and D.D., minor children, T.D., Appellant, v. Department of Children and Family Services, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

December 29, 2004.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jessica C. Tien of Tien Law Group, Tampa, for Appellant.

Bernie McCabe, State Attorney, and Ellen J. Scott, Assistant State Attorney, Dade City, for Appellee.

CASANUEVA, Judge.

The mother, T.D., appeals the final judgment terminating her parental rights to her children, T.D. and D.D. Finding no reversible error, we affirm and write only to discuss one issue: the applicability of the federal Indian Child Welfare Act1 (ICWA), interjected here late into the final termination of parental rights (TPR) hearing, and the need to ascertain its impact at the earliest moment in TPR proceedings.
