        "text": "Conley Byrd, Justice.\nThis is an action by appellee Mrs. Adell Stewart, a grandmother, against appellants Guy Veazey, stepfather and Jo Ella Veasey, mother, to obtain visitation privileges with Linda Kennedy, a minor daughter of appellee\u2019s deceased son. The trial court granted such visitation rights and we reverse.\nJo Ella Kennedy Veazey was the wife of Jimmy Lee Kennedy, appellee\u2019s son, until his death on November 23, 1968. To that marriage was born Linda Kennedy, now age 10. This action was instituted after Jo Ella\u2019s marriage to appellant Guy Veazey on October 3, 1969. It is conceded that Jo Ella has been and is a good mother.\nAppellee recognizes that under the general law there is no right of visitation enforceable by injunction in favor of a grandparent with respect to a grandchild when a natural parent having custody resists or objects. Yet she takes the position that, \u201cEquity regards that as done which ought to be done\u201d, and that the right of visitation should be accorded a good grandmother in an exceptional case. However in this case there is nothing that shows anything other than a normal grandchild-grandmother relationship in which the grandmother willingly did some Friday night baby sitting.\nAppellee points out that the grandparents in Parks v. Crowley, 221 Ark. 340, 253 S. W. 2d 561 (1952), were granted visitation privileges. The visitation privileges there grew out of a child custody action. Here it is admitted that this is not a child custody action.\nReversed and dismissed.",
