EISMANN, Justice.

This is an appeal out of Twin Falls County from a judgment dismissing a petition to terminate the parental rights of the biological father of two children and to permit the children's stepfather to adopt them. The magistrate court dismissed the action on the ground that the petitioners had failed to prove that termination of the father's parental rights would be in the best interests of the children. We affirm.
