34116.
    HANNAH v. PUCKETT.
    Argued November 14, 1978
    Decided December 5, 1978.
    
      Garland, Nuckolls, Kadish, Cook & Weisensee, Mark J. Kadish, Rhonda A. Brofman, for appellant.
    
      Howe & Sutton, Donald B. Howe, Jr., for appellee.
   Undercofler, Presiding Justice.

This appeal is from the order of the trial court directing that the parties’ 15-and 16-year-old-sons be jailed for refusing to visit with their father as provided in a divorce decree. Whatever the solution, if any, we are convinced a trial court cannot jail children for refusing to visit their father.

Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concur.
