Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

The condition of probation requiring the child to attend family counseling if recommended by the Department of Juvenile Justice is stricken on the ground that it is an improper delegation of judicial authority. See Huffman v. State, 472 So. 2d 469 (Fla. 1st DCA 1985); In Interest of T.L.D., 586 So. 2d 1294 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991). In all other respects, the order withholding adjudication of delinquency is affirmed.

Affirmed as modified.

WEBSTER, PADOVANO, and POLSTON, JJ., concur.
