The ability to refuse visitation to a father that fails to abide by visitation rules varies from one state to another. However, most states require you to submit a complaint to the court for a determination on whether visitation limitations or other punishments will be issued for the father before changes can be made.

Can a father get custody if he is not compliant with visitation?
Possibly, depending on the circumstances of his non-compliance and whether or not the court feels it would be in the best interests of the child for him to be granted custody. Generally, however, a parent's refusal to abide by court ordered visitation is not favorable unless the non-compliant parent can present compelling evidence to the contrary.
Can a mother take fathers rights to a minor child if he is paying child support?
If you're the father, and the mother is attempting to deny you visitation rights, you need to get a lawyer and take it to court. If you're the mother, and you'd like to deny the father visitation rights, you need to get a lawyer and take it to court. Child support is an entirely separate issue. It has NOTHING to do with visitation or custody rights. You are obligated to abide by the court orders in both cases, but you don't get to stop paying support or deny visitation just because the other parent did the other one of those things.
What if custodial parent won't abide by court taxes and visitation?

If my ex doesn't abide by the hours set by the court for visitation can I say no to him?
Are you willing to punish your children for his errors? That's what you would be doing by it, regardless of what you feel your rights are.
Can the mother keep the child from seeing his dad if he is paying child support?
Yes, they can. My parents are divorced. They got divorced when my mother was 8 months pregnant with me. My father paid child support until he got sick of it. But anyways, my mum kept me, and I'm still with her, 13 years, and same as my sister. :) Payment of child support does not, in itself, confer any right to visitation. However, the custodial parent must abide by any visitation orders. In many States, violation of a visitation order is a crime.

How do you get visitation rights if you were not married and the mother of your son will not respond to your calls or letters?
If your name is on the birth certificate as the father, you can sue for visitation in court. Get a lawyer and file a suit. The mother will be compelled to come to the court and abide by its decision. If your name is not on the birth certificate, you will have to establish paternity. This could be drawn out and involve a lot more lawyers and money. My name is on the birth certificate, we live in different states and I would like to see more of my son in my home town. Do you think I would be able to do that?
How does a father go about getting hes parental rights enforced if visitation has been denied?
If no visitation order is in place, file for one in the jurisdiction where the child resides. If an order is in place and the custodial parent isn't abiding by them, again, in the court of jurisdiction, file a motion of contempt of court against that person for failure to abide by the court order. The non-compliant parent will be ordered to follow the outlined court ordered visitation provisions or face a monetary fine, jail or both. And if the non-compliance becomes chronic, it may lead to a custody modification order, granting custody to the non-custodial parent.
How do I file paper work to start and try to see my grandson again, he is with his father, he will not let him see us or his sister. I recently completed adoption process of her.?
Rights of parents exceed those of grandparents in all states and parents can refuse to have them seen by their grandparents, for any reason. Except when they have found to be unfit by the courts and are no longer the legal guardian of the children, in this case they might have some visitation rights and such, but that will be explained fully by the courts decesion. By your last statement about recently completing adoption process of your granddaughter, does that mean you are the sole legal guardian of her and he has no rights? Simple then, just pick them up from school and show the father doesn't have the right to pick them up. If he is violating terms of visitation and refusing to abide by a court order of visitation with your adopted daughter, go back to court. If you do not have a legal basis for custody or unless you have evidence they are being grossly neglected, I would recommend you make whatever kind of peace you can with him, defer to whatever rules he has - bite your tongue and try to make it work

God made the Israelites abide by so many laws because like a father he gave them laws to help rehabilitate them.
