No. The child is now eighteen and he or she can make their own decision although that may cause trouble if the child still lives with the "custodial" parent.

Can the courts force a child to vist a non custodial parent?
No one can "force" you to visit your child, although refusing visitation would likely have negative consequences like the loss of visitation rights in the future and the loss of parental rights as far as decision-making (also the loss of the love of your child!!!). Refusing visitation will not reduce or eliminate your child support obligations; in fact, the custodial parent would have a much stronger case if they requested an increase in support and could show the judge that you are not contributing in other ways to the child's well-being.
