DANIEL, Justice,
concurring.
I concur for the reasons stated in my concurring opinion in Trader v. Dear, B— 7340,565 S.W.2d 233 (Tex. 1978).
The courts of this State are compelled to follow and apply the clear and mandatory language adopted by the Legislature in Section 14.10 of the Family Code. The concurring opinion in Dear, supra, suggests consideration by the Legislature of an amendment which would permit courts of continuing jurisdiction to consider the best interest of the child by consolidating habeas corpus hearings with pending motions for modification of existing child custody orders.
