yea
Generally, yes. A parent has the right to choose who their child will spend time with.
No, but you can ask for joint custody of them. see links
I think you mean if the visiting parent has a court ordered visitation. If the parent has court ordered visitation then yes the child is forced to be with the parent, that is what the court order is for. If the parent has no court order than legally the answer is "no" but i think if both parents agreed to a time for one of them to spend time with their child the child being a minor must do as the parents tell him or her to do.
You can spend time with them
If you are the child's parent you will need to spend some good quality time with him/her. Ask the child what he/she would like to do and do it! Just showing that you are willing to let him/her choose something to do, and then seeing you do it with a good positive attitude will do wonders! Kids need GOOD quality time and need to feel valued and important.
Immediately, ESPECIALLY if she has full custody or the time you plan to spend out of state is part of the time she is supposed to have the child.
This is an issue that's frequently brought up, along with the right to choose what parent they wish to live with.This issue particularly arises as children enter their teen years. They don't want to be required to spend time with a parent, either parent. They think of themselves as almost adults, and thus can make their own decisions.The main issue here is not their right in choosing to spend time with the other parent, but their right to ignore and dishonor the authority of the family court. One has to wonder how many males that ignore child support orders were raised to believe it okay to ignore any family court orders, which includes the visitation orders?If a child, whether by choice or through the influence of a primary parent, doesn't wish to spend time with the other parent, this issue has to be first brought before the court for consideration. The child can explain to the judge, outside the presence of either parent, why they feel it's in their own best interest as to why they no longer have a need for the parental influence of the separated parent?see links

Yes, if there is a stipulation in the divorce agreement.

No, unfortunately. A court cannot force a father to spend time with his child. The court can issue a visitation order but cannot force the non-custodial parent to obey it.
In a child custody arrangement, the custodial parent is responsible for the day-to-day care and decision-making for the child, while the non-custodial parent typically has visitation rights and is required to provide financial support. The custodial parent has more authority in making important decisions for the child, while the non-custodial parent has the right to spend time with the child according to the custody agreement.
