Natalie A. appeals from the juvenile court’s order continuing her son Jonathan F.’s out-of-home placement at the six-month status review hearing and denying her petition under Welfare and Institutions Code1 section 388 for a change in his placement. We affirm. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

When he was five months old, Jonathan F. suffered an acute right subdural hematoma, a subarachnoid hemorrhage, bilateral brain ischemia, and retinal hemorrhages in his left eye. (In re Jonathan F.
