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.
