The child may refuse visits if the child is now an adult or emancipated, or if there is no order for visitation.
18 unless the parents let the child choose.
If the father have no court order for visitation she can refuse.
18. Until that age if the parent has court-ordered visitation it has to be followed. If there is a valid reason (and it must be a very valid reason) the child does not want to visit with the other parent, you need to petition the court to modify the visitation order.

if the child doesn't want to see the noncustodial parent he doesn't have too. don't force him to do it =)
No. Child support, visitation, custody etc are all separate issues. The court will see to what is best for the child and one parent can not deny the parental rights of the other.
First, it is an Urban Myth that fathers go for custody to avoid paying child support. First, who would support the children while in his custody? Less then 15% of mothers are ordered to pay, and depending on circumstances, the custodial father is often still ordered to pay child support.
Only with a court order. If you feel the mother would present a danger to the child during visitation, you must file for a modification to visitation based on the same and wait for the judge to rule on it. If time is an issue, you can file for an emergency order. Otherwise, if you refuse the mother access to her child as outlined in the original visitation order, you risk being found in contempt of court and that can bring fines and/or jail time.
Yes, unless he has been to court and has a order of visitation.
