Court properly vacated order of protective supervision, which allowed Respondent-mother's two children, ages 6 and 2, to remain in her care subject to certain conditions. be removed from her care and custody does not constitute an abuse of discretion. Mother's conduct in leaving 2-year-old alone and resisting caseworker's efforts to check on children's safety posed substantial risk of harm to the children, which justified removing them from mother's care.
