IF you have a legitimate court order granting you visitation you can enforce it at the mother's home with a police escort. You cannot take them out of the country, however, unless the mother consents or your custody/visitation order states that you can. If you disagree with this you need to file for a custody/visitation hearing in her state and county. You can go to the pro se (meaning to defend yourself) website for her state and do most of it online, you could even have someone you know here stateside file it in court for you to get a hearing, however you NEED to be at the hearing. Your other option would be to hire an attorney in her state and county and she can go to court on your behalf (with some required paperwork) and try to get the order modified. Through personal experience and working with hundreds of court cases I never suggest that you allow a judge to make a decision so serious that will affect your life until your youngest is 18 without you at least giving the judge your side of the story.

If the father has visitation rights and the mother refuses to allow the father those rights, then the father can sue the mother in a civil contempt proceeding. If she doesn't have a good reason for disallowing the visitation then she can be held in contempt of court. There are various remedies including giving the father more visitation to make up for the visitation that was disallowed by the mother or even giving the father custody, but usually, the judge will just order the mother to allow the visits. His paying or not paying child support has nothing to do with whether or not he gets visitation (i.e. he gets visitation regardless of whether or not he is current with child support).
