Visitation and child support are separate issues. One does not depend on the other. Parents must provide support for their children. There are many variations in visitation rights and those do not generally affect child support obligations.

The custodial parent is the parent in which the child resides with. My son lives with me and I am the custodial parent, his dad has visitation rights and pays child support.
Change visitation
First thing..in Indiana...most courts view support and visitation as two separate issues. If the support is required through the courts the judge will ask what the visitation is at that time. However, if the non-custodial parent wants to get visitation without the custodial parents agreement, the non-custodial parent will have to file a request with the court and have a judge issue visitation. If there is no visitation order in place by a judge/court, the custodial parent has no legal requirement to permit visitation. I have dealt with this issue personally as well as my sibling, me being a custodial parent my sibling being a non-custodial parent. So I have seen what happens from both sides. Basically if it something isn't ordered by a judge/court, there is no legal requirement to do visitation or support.
It depends on the state laws where you live and the stipulations of your divorce decree. Generally, you cannot move the child without the consent of the non-custodial parent and the court. The visitation order would require modification.
No - indeed, some jurisdictions will prosecute for this.
Unless visitation rights for the non-custodial parent were allowed in the divorce paperwork, the custodial parent is completely within their rights to deny the non-custodial parent visitation....however, the non-custodial parent may sue for visitation rights.
No. That issue must be brought before the court by the custodial parent with a request for modification of the existing visitation order. The court will investigate the matter and render a decision.No. That issue must be brought before the court by the custodial parent with a request for modification of the existing visitation order.

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.
No. The non-custodial parent needs to have the visitation rights enforced by the court if necessary.
Leaves them permanently or in violation of court ordered custody/visitation time? In either circumstances, the non-custodial parent may file an action for contempt of court against the custodial parent and/or file for custody/visitation modification based on the same.
Once paternity is established, the non-custodial parent has the right to request visitation, just as the custodial parent has the right to request support.
You continue to pay support until otherwise ordered by the court. If the parent moved out of state without court permission or in violation of a custody order interfering with the non-custodial parent's visitation rights, the non-custodial parent may file an action against the custodial parent for the same, or file for a modification in visitation, forcing the custodial parent to return the child for visitation as outlined in the original order.
