Appeal from an order of the Family Court of Madison County (Humphreys, J.), entered June 23, 1993, which partially granted petitioner’s application, in a proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 10, to adjudicate Susan EE., Brandie HH. and Donald II. as neglected children by, inter alia, respondent Lloyd EE.

Family Court concluded that the testimony of Susan EE. concerning the conduct of respondent was credible. Based upon our review of the record, we find no basis to disturb Family Court’s determination of the credibility issues. Respondent’s claim that the sworn testimony of Susan EE. at the hearing required corroboration is incorrect (cf., Matter of
Cardona, P. J., White and Peters, JJ., concur. Ordered that the order is affirmed, without costs.
