                                   INTRODUCTION
       Appellant Patricia W. (Mother) appeals from the juvenile court’s order terminating
her parental rights to her infant daughter, Elena O. Mother contends the juvenile court
abused its discretion in denying her petition for modification brought under Welfare and
Institutions Code section 388,1 through which she sought reinstatement of reunification
services with Elena. Mother also contends the court failed to advise at the jurisdiction
hearing that her reunification services with Elena could be terminated after six months if
she did not participate in court-ordered programs or a child welfare services plan, as
required under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3).
       We hold the juvenile court did not abuse its discretion in denying Mother’s section
388 petition: Mother failed to demonstrate that changed circumstances or Elena’s best
interests justified a modification of the juvenile court’s order terminating Mother’s
reunification services. We also hold that Mother’s contention that the juvenile court
failed to provide proper notice under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3) is not supported by
the record.
                 FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
       Prior to DCFS’s initiation of Elena’s dependency case, Mother was involved in
several dependency and juvenile proceedings, including a dependency proceeding
involving her older daughter, S.M., as well as her own dependency and juvenile
proceedings beginning in the early 1990s.
       Mother, who was born in 1991, began using drugs, primarily marijuana and
methamphetamine, when she was 19. She used methamphetamine during a period of her
pregnancy with S.M., but stopped once she discovered she was pregnant. During the
periods when she uses drugs, Mother usually smokes marijuana every other day and uses
methamphetamine about every three days.

                                             2
       Before Elena was born, DCFS filed a dependency petition on S.M.’s behalf, citing
Mother’s history of drug abuse and an incident during which Mother transported S.M. in
a car without securing her in a child’s safety restraint seat as justifications for S.M.’s
removal from Mother’s custody. In May 2012, the juvenile court declared S.M. a
dependent of the court and placed her with maternal relatives. During S.M.’s placement,
Mother sporadically visited and never bonded with her daughter. In October 2013, the
court terminated Mother’s parental rights as to S.M. due to Mother’s failure to comply
with the juvenile court’s orders.
       While S.M.’s dependency case was pending, Mother became pregnant with Rafael
O.’s (Father) daughter, Elena. In December 2012, Mother gave birth to Elena. Three
days later, DCFS removed Elena from Mother’s and Father’s custody and placed her with
a foster family.
       On December 19, 2012, DCFS filed an original dependency petition on Elena’s
behalf. The original petition alleged Mother was unable to adequately protect and care
for Elena based on Mother’s history of drug abuse and failure to adequately protect
S.M.’s safety, thereby placing Elena at a risk of harm. On January 11, 2013, Elena’s
original petition was dismissed after DCFS filed an amended petition adding an
allegation that Elena’s removal from her parents’ custody was necessary due to Father’s
history of drug abuse.
       At the January 25, 2013 jurisdiction hearing, the juvenile court sustained DCFS’s
amended petition as to the drug-abuse allegations against Mother and Father, and it struck
the allegation that Mother placed Elena at risk of harm by previously failing to protect
S.M.’s safety. The court then declared Elena a dependent of the court and ordered DCFS
to provide reunification services to both parents. In its jurisdiction/disposition report,
DCFS recommended that the court advise Mother and Father that their reunification
services might not exceed six months unless there was a substantial probability Elena
would be returned to Mother’s or Father’s physical custody within 18 months of Elena’s
initial removal from Mother’s and Father’s custody.


                                               3
       Following the jurisdiction hearing, DCFS referred Mother to, among other things,
drug testing, parenting classes, and a substance abuse treatment program. DCFS also
provided Mother with bus passes.
       After Elena was declared a dependent, Mother became homeless, and her visits
with Elena were sporadic and infrequent. By March 2013, Elena had yet to bond with
Mother. At the same time, Elena appeared to be bonding with her foster family.
       Approximately six months after her birth, Elena was exhibiting signs of muscle
rigidity in her arms and legs, which DCFS suspected was caused by prenatal exposure to
drugs and physical assault endured by Mother during pregnancy. Elena appeared to be
otherwise well-developed and healthy.
       By late June 2013, Mother was still homeless and reportedly living with Father in
a park in the San Fernando Valley. At that time, Mother had yet to enroll in, or show
proof of completion of, any court-ordered programs or services, and she had yet to submit
to drug testing. Mother’s and Father’s visits with Elena remained sporadic and
infrequent, with Mother’s last visit occurring on April 18, 2013. As a result, Elena had
yet to begin bonding with Mother and Father. Additionally, during their visits, Mother
would usually defer to Father to care for Elena’s needs.
       At the same time, Elena’s bond with her foster family continued to grow stronger.
According to DCFS’s interim report, Elena’s foster family had devoted an “inordinate,
but necessary, amount of energy, time, sacrifice and love [to] the care of Elena,” with
Elena’s foster mother carrying her for up to 18 hours a day in a specialized sling designed
to provide skin-to-skin contact and correct Elena’s muscle rigidity.
       In its July 1, 2013 status-review report, DCFS recommended that the juvenile
court terminate Mother’s and Father’s reunification services, citing the parents’ failure to
regularly visit Elena and participate in their court-ordered treatment plan. The juvenile
court continued the scheduled July 1, 2013 six-month review hearing to August 7, 2013
to allow for a contested hearing.




                                             4
          On July 31, 2013, the juvenile court ordered DCFS to evaluate Elena’s paternal
grandmother for potential placement. DCFS’s evaluation concluded that Elena’s paternal
grandmother would not be a suitable caregiver for Elena. The evaluation stated that
Elena’s grandmother had allowed Mother and Father to use drugs while they lived with
her in the past, and that she had allowed Mother and Father unfettered access to her home
while she was seeking custody of Elena following Elena’s placement with the foster
family.
          At the August 7, 2013 six-month review hearing, the juvenile court terminated
Mother’s and Father’s reunification services and set a permanency planning hearing
pursuant to section 366.26. Following the review hearing, Mother did not seek appellate
review of the juvenile court’s order terminating her reunification services.
          By August 2013, Mother was pregnant with her third child. In late August 2013,
Father reportedly attacked pregnant Mother on at least two occasions. During the first
reported incident, Father kicked Mother’s stomach and repeatedly struck her face.
Several days later, Father and his new girlfriend attacked Mother. During this incident,
Father hit Mother’s face while his girlfriend used a large stick to strike Mother’s head
and upper body.
          On September 4, 2013, Father was arrested on domestic violence charges.
Following his arrest, Mother informed DCFS that Father used methamphetamine on a
daily basis when he was out of custody. During interviews with DCFS, Father confirmed
that he used to associate with a gang located in the San Fernando Valley. Father also
confirmed he had previously been incarcerated for several years for a murder charge of
which he was never convicted, as well as for several burglary and grand theft auto
convictions. According to his parole officer, Father “should not be supervising any
child.”
          As of October 7, 2013, Mother and Father had visited Elena only four to five times
since Elena’s birth, with their last visit having taken place at a July 2013 court hearing.
By this time, Elena’s foster family had informed DCFS that it wanted to adopt Elena if
the juvenile court were to terminate Mother’s and Father’s parental rights. Elena’s foster

                                               5
family had also informed DCFS that it was communicating with S.M.’s caregivers about
facilitating visits between Elena and S.M.
       On November 4, 2013, Mother entered an inpatient substance abuse treatment
program. In January 2014, Mother gave birth to her third child, Damien O., who she also
became pregnant with by Father. A few days later, DCFS filed a dependency petition on
Damien’s behalf. The juvenile court later declared Damien a dependent of the court and
released him to Mother’s custody on the condition that Mother remain in her treatment
program. During DCFS’s investigation of Damien’s case, Mother admitted that she had
resumed using methamphetamine after she gave birth to Elena, and that her use had
overlapped with her pregnancy with Damien. She also informed DCFS that she had
previously failed to complete a substance abuse treatment program prior to Elena’s birth.
       On January 28, 2014, Mother filed a section 388 petition seeking modification of
the juvenile court’s order terminating her reunification services with Elena. In her
petition, Mother claimed that her circumstances had changed because she had entered an
inpatient treatment program on November 4, 2013, and she had since consistently tested
negative for drug use. She also claimed that reinstating reunification services would be
in Elena’s best interest because it would enable Elena to permanently bond with Mother.
A letter from Mother’s treatment center attached to the petition stated that Mother had yet
to seek gainful employment or transition to a lower level of treatment. At the time she
filed her petition, Mother had not visited Elena since July 2013. On January 30, 2014,
the juvenile court denied Mother’s section 388 petition without a hearing.
       Around March 2014, Mother began visiting Elena again. However, Mother’s
visits remained infrequent due to her residency in the treatment program. During these
visits, Elena continued to show no signs of recognizing Mother as a parental figure.
       On March 21, 2014, Mother filed a second section 388 petition seeking
modification of the juvenile court’s termination order. In her second petition, Mother
claimed her circumstances had sufficiently changed because she had remained enrolled in
her inpatient treatment program for more than five months and had continued to test
negative for drug use. Mother claimed modification of the court’s termination order

                                             6
would be in Elena’s best interest because it would provide Elena the opportunity to grow
up with Damien. An attached letter from Mother’s treatment center explained that
Mother was participating in a series of group sessions, including parenting classes and
relapse prevention; however, the letter also confirmed that Mother still had not obtained
employment or transitioned to a lower level of treatment. The juvenile court granted
Mother a hearing on her second petition.
         In its response to Mother’s second petition, DCFS observed that Elena did not
appear to recognize Mother as a parental figure and refused to independently interact
with her. By the time Mother filed the second petition, Elena had become very closely
bonded with her foster mother, often crying whenever her foster mother left her alone
with Mother and turning only to her foster mother for help with basic activities such as
putting on her shoes or grabbing her toys. DCFS also observed that Elena was
experiencing developmental delays that Mother refused to acknowledge. As a result,
DCFS was concerned that Mother would not be willing to secure necessary treatment for
Elena should the child be returned to Mother’s custody.
         In that same report, DCFS also reported that Mother acknowledged Father’s
violent and abusive behavior. Mother also informed DCFS that Father’s use of
methamphetamine tended to intensify his violent behavior. Nevertheless, Mother
expressed a desire to reunite with Father upon his release from custody if he addressed
his substance abuse and anger issues. At the time of the hearing on Mother’s second
petition, Father was still in custody, but he was expected to be released around October
2014.
         On April 30, 2014, the juvenile court conducted a hearing on Mother’s second
petition. Mother did not testify; she submitted on her petition and her counsel’s
arguments. The court denied Mother’s petition, finding that Mother had demonstrated
only that her conditions were “changing,” and that modifying the court’s termination
order would not be in Elena’s best interests. The court then conducted a permanency
planning hearing, during which it terminated Mother’s and Father’s parental rights as to
Elena.

                                             7
       At a July 31, 2014 review hearing, the juvenile court ordered a permanent plan of
adoption for Elena, with a target finalization date of January 29, 2015.2
                                       DISCUSSION
I.     Mother Has Not Demonstrated the Juvenile Court Failed to Provide Proper
       Notice Under Section 361.5, Subdivision (a)(3)
       Mother asserts the juvenile court failed to advise her at the January 25, 2013
jurisdiction hearing that her reunification services with Elena could be terminated after
six months, as required under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3). Mother argues the
juvenile court’s failure to so advise requires reversal of the court’s order terminating her
parental rights.
       Under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3), if a child is under three years of age at the
time she is first removed from the physical custody of her parent, “the court shall inform
the parent or guardian that the failure of the parent or guardian to participate regularly in
any court-ordered treatment programs or to cooperate or avail himself or herself of
services provided as part of the child welfare services case plan may result in a
termination of efforts to reunify the family after six months.” (§ 361.5, subd. (a)(3).)
       “The advice requirement of section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3) . . . has nothing to do
with due process.” (Arlena M. v. Superior Court (2004) 121 Cal.App.4th 566, 571.)
Rather, its goal is to “instill in a parent a sense of urgency and of the seriousness of the
[dependency] matter . . . ,” and it most effectively operates “on a parent who would
otherwise ignore or neglect the reunification plan and its requirements.” (Ibid.) This
goal must be appropriately weighed against the primary purpose of the dependency
statutes, which is to “obtain stability and permanency for children who will not return to
their natural parents.” (Id. at p. 572, italics in original.) If reviewing courts were to
regularly invalidate a juvenile court’s order terminating reunification services on the



2
       On our own motion, we take judicial notice of the juvenile court’s minute order
from a July 31, 2014 review hearing, which was entered after Mother filed her instant
appeal.
                                               8
grounds that the juvenile court failed to advise under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3),
“the result would be an undesirable protraction of proceedings.” (Ibid.) Thus, “courts
should be . . . cautious in determining which errors and omissions require that
proceedings be returned to the trial court for further attempts at a reunification which the
record suggests will never occur.” (Ibid.) In light of these considerations, a juvenile
court’s failure to comply with section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3)’s advisement
requirements does not require reversal per se; rather, such error should only be reversed
where the parent demonstrates prejudice. (Arlena M., supra, 121 Cal.App.4th at pp. 571-
573.)
        As a preliminary matter, we are unable to determine whether the juvenile court
failed to properly advise Mother of her rights under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3).
Mother has not supplied the reporter’s transcript from the January 25, 2013 jurisdiction
hearing. It is well settled that the appellant has the affirmative duty to demonstrate error
on appeal by reference to an adequate record. (Osgood v. Landon (2005) 127
Cal.App.4th 425, 435.) “[A] record is inadequate . . . if the appellant predicates error
only on the part of the record [she] provides the trial court, but ignores or does not
present to the appellate court portions of the proceedings below which may provide
grounds upon which the decision of the trial court could be affirmed.” (Ibid.)
        Here, Mother has failed to provide a critical portion of the jurisdiction hearing --
i.e., the reporter’s transcript. As the transcript would provide an account of what rights
the juvenile court actually advised Mother, we are unable to determine whether the
juvenile court in fact erred. (See Osgood, supra, 127 Cal.App.4th at p. 435.) In light of
the dependency statutes’ primary purpose of obtaining stability and permanency for the
placement and development of a child subject to the dependency system, we are not
inclined to find error, and thereby disrupt Elena’s placement in a permanent, stable, and
nurturing environment, where Mother has not met her burden of proof. (See Arlena M.,
supra, 121 Cal.App.4th at p. 572 [“The clear legislative intent is that ‘minors who are
adoptable will no longer have to wait months and often years for the opportunity to be
placed with an appropriate family on a permanent basis.’ [Citation]”]; see also Osgood,

                                               9
supra, 127 Cal.App.4th at p. 435 [“ ‘A judgment or order of the [trial] court is presumed
correct. All intendments and presumptions are indulged to support it on matters as to
which the record is silent. . . .’ ”; italics in original].)
       In any event, even if we were to assume the juvenile court failed to properly
advise Mother of her rights under section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3), Mother has not
shown that she was prejudiced by such error. (See Arlena M., supra, 121 Cal.App.4th at
p. 573 [failure to advise pursuant to section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3) does not warrant
reversal unless the parent can establish prejudice].) Mother waited three months after the
court terminated her reunification services before she began taking any considerable steps
to beneficially change her living circumstances. For example, after her reunification
services were terminated, Mother did not enter a substance abuse treatment program or
begin submitting to regular drug tests until November 4, 2013. Still, by that time, Mother
had yet to start regularly visiting Elena. In fact, Mother went approximately seven
months from the time her services were terminated without visiting her daughter.
Further, Mother waited more than eight months after the juvenile court terminated her
services to seek appellate review of the termination order. Mother’s conduct before and
after the juvenile court terminated her reunification services provides no indication that
Mother would have taken the necessary steps to retain physical custody of Elena had she
been advised in accordance with section 361.5, subdivision (a)(3). (See id. at p. 573, fn.
8 [“One of Mother’s deficiencies during the reunification period was her failure to visit
the minors on anything approaching a regular basis. A concerned but lackadaisical parent
might conceivably need a stern warning to push him or her into therapy, drug
rehabilitation, or parenting classes, but it is difficult to imagine that any encouragement
or threat could overcome essential indifference.”].) In other words, Mother has failed to
establish prejudice.
II.    The Juvenile Court Did Not Abuse its Discretion in Denying Mother’s
       Section 388 Petition
       Mother next contends the juvenile court abused its discretion in denying her
second section 388 petition. Mother argues her participation in an inpatient substance

                                                 10
abuse treatment program constitutes changed circumstances to warrant modification of
the juvenile court’s order terminating her reunification services with Elena. Mother
further argues reinstatement of her reunification services would be in Elena’s best
interests because it would allow Elena the opportunity to be raised by her biological
mother and grow up with her biological brother.
       To warrant modifying a juvenile court’s order under section 388, “there must be a
substantial change in circumstances regarding the child’s welfare and the requested
modification of the prior order must be in the child’s best interests.” (In re Heraclio A.
(1996) 42 Cal.App.4th 569, 577.) “Not every change in circumstance can justify
modification of a prior order. The change in circumstances must relate to the purpose of
the order and be such that the modification of the prior order is appropriate.” (In re S.R.
(2009) 173 Cal.App.4th 864, 870.) In determining whether the proposed change would
be in a child’s best interests, courts look to three factors: (1) the seriousness of the
problem leading to the child’s dependency and the reason for its continuation; (2) the
relative strength of the bonds between the child and both her biological parent and her
caretaker, as well as the relative lengths of time the child has spent with her biological
parent and her caretaker; and (3) the nature of the change of circumstance, the ease by
which the change could be brought about, and the reason the change was not made
earlier. (In re Amber M. (2002) 103 Cal.App.4th 681, 685, citing In re Kimberly F.
(1997) 56 Cal.App.4th 519, 530-531.)
       The party requesting modification of a juvenile court’s order bears the burden of
establishing by a preponderance of the evidence that the modification is justified. (In re
S.R., supra, 173 Cal.App.4th at p. 870.) “‘Whether a previously made order should be
modified rests within the dependency court’s discretion, and its determination will not be
disturbed on appeal unless an abuse of discretion is clearly established.’ [Citation.] The
denial of a section 388 motion rarely merits reversal as an abuse of discretion.” (In re
Amber M., supra, 103 Cal.App.4th at pp. 685-686.)




                                              11
       At the time she filed her second petition, Mother alleged the following changed
circumstances: (1) she had been participating in an inpatient substance abuse treatment
program for more than five months; (2) she had begun visiting with Elena again; and
(3) she had been allowed to retain custody of Damien while she remained in her
treatment program.
       The juvenile court did not abuse its discretion in denying Mother’s second section
388 petition. Mother has demonstrated only that her circumstances are changing; she
has not established that her circumstances have sufficiently changed to warrant
modifying the juvenile court’s order terminating her reunification services. (See In re
Heraclio A., supra, 42 Cal.App.4th at p. 577.)
       Mother has a history of drug abuse and relapses, including a relapse following
Elena’s birth. Her drug use has overlapped with the pregnancies of two of her children,
and her drug use and relapses led to the termination of her parental rights as to Elena’s
older sister. While Mother has started to address these issues through an inpatient
treatment program, the issues have yet to be adequately resolved. (See In re Kimberly F.,
supra, 56 Cal.App.4th at p. 531, fn. 9; In re Clifton B. (2000) 81 Cal.App.4th 415, 423-
424.) For example, the letter from Mother’s treatment program’s clinical supervisor
states that, at the time Mother filed her second petition, she had yet to transition to a
lower level of care. Further, Mother has a history of unsuccessfully entering substance
abuse treatment programs. Thus, Mother’s limited participation in her current program
does not establish that she has adequately resolved her substance abuse problems to
constitute a substantial change in circumstances under section 388. (See In re C.J.W.
(2007) 157 Cal.App.4th 1075, 1081.)
       Additionally, there is substantial evidence to support the juvenile court’s finding
that reinstatement of Mother’s reunification services would not be in Elena’s best
interests. Since three days after she was born, Elena has lived with, and has been cared
for by, her foster family. From the moment her foster family took her into its home,
Elena has received exceptional care, attention, and affection; three things Mother has
never seriously attempted to provide Elena since her birth. Although Mother has been

                                              12
homeless or living in a treatment center since Elena’s birth, DCFS has worked to
facilitate Mother’s visits with Elena by supplying her with bus passes; however, for more
than a year of Elena’s life, Mother rarely made an effort to visit her child. For example,
between the time Elena was removed from Mother’s custody on December 14, 2012 and
the time Mother filed her first section 388 petition in late January 2014, Mother visited
Elena only a handful of times.
       Unsurprisingly, Elena has yet to form a bond with Mother or start to recognize her
as a parental figure. On the other hand, Elena has formed a substantial bond with her
foster family, especially her foster mother. Elena always turns to her foster mother for
help with her basic needs, and she does not like to be separated from her foster mother for
more than a few minutes at a time, even when she is in Mother’s presence. Although
Mother has finally started taking steps toward establishing a steady and drug-free life, she
has offered no explanation for why it took nearly a year of Elena’s life, and nearly three
months after the juvenile court terminated her reunification services, for her to begin
taking those steps. To allow Mother to reinitiate reunification services and delay Elena’s
permanent placement with the only family Elena knows during a time that is crucial to
Elena’s emotional and physical development would contravene the purpose of the
dependency system. (See Arlena M., supra, 121 Cal.App.4th at p. 572 [“[T]he reality is
that childhood is brief; it does not wait while a parent rehabilitates himself or herself.
The nurturing required must be given by someone, at the time the child needs it, not when
the parent is ready to give it”]; see also In re Marilyn H. (1993) 5 Cal.4th 295, 309
[“Once reunification services are ordered terminated, the focus shifts to the needs of the
child for permanency and stability”].)
       Additionally, Mother’s willingness to reunite with Father demonstrates that
reinstatement of Mother’s reunification services would not be in Elena’s best interests.
Father has a history of being violent and abusive toward Mother, and this history reveals
his alarming lack of concern for his children’s safety. On two reported occasions after
Elena’s birth, Father attacked Mother while she was pregnant with Damien. During the
first attack, Father kicked Mother’s stomach; during the second attack, he hit Mother’s

frequently uses methamphetamine, which Mother claims exacerbates his abusive
behavior.
       Since Elena’s birth, Father has made no attempt to address his issues with violence
and substance abuse, and neither he nor Mother have demonstrated that he will address
these issues at any point in the near future. Thus, Mother’s willingness to reunite with
Father demonstrates that it would not be in Elena’s best interests to reinstate Mother’s
reunification services; doing so would place Elena at risk of being removed from a stable
and nurturing household only to be relocated to an environment that would likely be
wrought with violence and substance abuse if Father were to return to the fold. (In re
Zachary G. (1999) 77 Cal.App.4th 799, 808 [the mother’s petition and supporting
evidence did not show that it was in the minor’s “best interests to be removed from the
only home and caretakers he had ever known, and thereby be deprived of the stability of
a permanent home, in order to be returned to a parent who remained a risk . . . to again
regress by returning to an abusive partner”]; see also In re Anthony W. (2001) 87
Cal.App.4th 246, 252 [a child should not be made to wait indefinitely for mother to
address her “long history of drug addiction and [ ] recurring pattern of domestic violence
in front of the children”].)

       The juvenile court’s order is affirmed.
