D.B., Father of D.F., a Child, Appellant, v. DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, Appellee.
    No. 5D06-1676.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    Oct. 20, 2006.
    Ryan Thomas Truskoski, of Ryan Thomas Truskoski, P.A., Orlando, for Appellant.
    Charles D. Peters, Orlando, for Appel-lee.
   PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED. See M.M. v. Dep’t of Children & Families, 931 So.2d 280 (Fla. 5th DCA 2006); K.B. v. Dep’t of Children & Families, 834 So.2d 368, 369 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003) (observing “the ‘least restrictive means’ test ... is not intended to preserve the parental bonds at the cost of a child’s future.... The ‘least restrictive means’ test simply requires that measures short of termination be utilized if such measures would permit the safe re-establishment of the parent-child bond”).

THOMPSON, PALMER, and TORPY, JJ., concur.
