Appellant's one isolated attempt to contact her child within the relevant six-month period was, as Family Court held, insufficient to avoid a finding of abandonment ( see, Matter of Oneka O., 249 A.D.2d 233). Nor was the extreme inadequacy of appellant's efforts at maintaining contact with her child mitigated either by appellant's illiteracy or her incarceration ( see, Matter of Tikisha Aisha L., 253 A.D.2d 709). Finally, responsibility for appellant's failure to maintain contact with her child may not be deflected to the agency ( see, Matter of Anthony M., 195 A.D.2d 315, 316).
