Assuming the visitation is court ordered, then no. If there is a legitimate reason the minor does not want to spend time with the parent (ie they're a drug abuse), then the custodial parent needs to petition the court for a modification of the visitation order.

16 year old teenager does not want to visit non-custodial parent during visitation what can custodial parent do?

Teach the child to respect the authority of the court. Teenagers do not want to be required to do anything with a parent. It's the job of the parent to remind them that family comes first.


Does a 16 year old daughter have to visit the father?

A 16 year old girl does not want any over night visitation with her father does she have to go? *** If they live in the US and Dad has court-ordered visitation, she has to go. If there is a legitimate reason that she doesn't want to go (he's abusive, a drug user, etc), then the custodial parent can go back to court and request that the visitation order be modified. However, without a legitimate reason, the court will not deny a parent the right to visit/maintain a relationship with their child.


What to do if court ordered child visitation is being blocked by a parent?

The parent being refused visitation should contact the attorney who handled the custodial case. If there was not legal counsel they should call the clerk or the court where the visitation order was issued for instructions on how to file a petition of "non-compliance of a court order" against the parent who has primary custody. The parent is in direct violation of a court order and unless he or she can show "just cause" for the action they may be charged with contempt of court. In some states it is possible to enlist the help of local law enforcement if the parent presents the court order of visitation. This however is not the best option as it creates a very stressful situation for the children and is only temporarily helpful in resolving the matter.

What options does a 17-year-old have if he doesn't want to participate in court ordered visitation with a parent?

unless the father is abusing the 17yr old physically or emotionally then there isn't much of a choice. Court order visitation is mandatory unless the parent with visitation relinquishes his or her right to do so. The option is for the custodial parent to file a petition on behalf of the minor requesting the visitation order be amended or rescinded. A 17-year-old would be given the opportunity to present reasons for the request to the judge, likewise, the parent who holds visitation rights would be allowed to file an objection.


Does my 14 year old in GA have to visit his other parent if he doesn't want to?

If the parent has court-ordered visitation, yes. If there is a legitimate reason the child does not want to visit the parent, the custodial parent can petition the court to revise the visitation order. Be aware the court will not deny a parent the right to visitation without a very good reason, nor will they look kindly on a custodial parent who request it without a very good reason.

Do you have to pay child support if your ex has had physical custody of your 16-year-old daughter for 4 years and you have had no visitation and your daughter has refused contact with you for 4 years?

Yes, if there is an active support order in place the obligated parent must adhere to the terms or risk being found in contempt of a court order. Child support and visitation are two completely different issues and the non compliance of a custodial parent to allow the other parent visitation has no bearing on the child support obligation. A parent who wishes to have contact with their children and is not able to do so, should consult with qualified legal counsel or agency for assistance in obtaining an order of visitation, compliance to an order of visitation, domestic mediation on the matter or other available options.
