Then why are they still the custodial parent? The court order doesn't say they only get child support while the child lives with them, it says you have to pay it every month, not what they have to do to earn it. Go back to court for a modification.

Yes, all US states recognize and enforce child support orders. If the payments are being made through CPS or another state agency they will continue as usual. If the payments are being made by the non custodial parent the court order for support still remains valid and enforceable.
If the question refers to having a court order enforced the interested party should contact the child support enforcement agency in the state where they reside. If there is no existing order of support the custodial parent or legal guardian should file a lawsuit against the non custodial parent(s) in the court of jurisdiction in the county and state where they reside.
Not arbitrarily. The custodial parent would have to receive permission from the court for the change in residence.
It can be requested that the child or a neutral party be named the payee of child support but will likely only be granted if it can be proven that there is a very good reason, such as the child does not actaully reside with the custodial parent, or the custodial parent is neglecting to pay for the child's care
The child support must be paid to the custodial parent unless the parents agree otherwise and the child support order is modified by the court.
No, it stays in the state of the obligor parent, as it should.
If representing oneself the custodial parent/legal guardian should file the lawsuit in the appropriate court in the state in which you reside. Include in the filing a request for a subpoena of discovery to be served on the non custodial parent. This will require he or she (or their legal representative) to appear before the court and present valid documents providing their source(s) of income and the total amounts. If the non custodial parent does not comply to the order he or she can be (and probably will be) held in contempt of a court order. If the custodial parent or legal guardian retains an attorney he or she will take the appropriate action to obtain the information concerning the self-employed non custodial parent's income and assets.
Such issues are not the jurisdiction of the state's Attorney General. The custodial parent will need to file suit in the appropriate court in the city or county where they reside against the non custodial parent.
Initially, nothing. There is no law that says a non-custodial parent must visit the child although there are laws that do govern child support payments. However, if the custodial parent wants to change the court document regarding the non-custodial parent's lack of visitation, the custodial parent should maintain a diary that includes all phone calls, visitation dates missed, any follow-up contact pertaining to the missed visitation with dates and times of contact. The diary can also contain the child's anticipation of the visit and the reactions to the missed visitation. After clearly documenting these infractions, the custodial parent can present the 'evidence' to the courts for remedy. It may be that the non-custodial parent can be charged with a type of abandonment and therefore permanently lose all parental rights. An attorney can explain in greater detail as it pertains to the State in which you reside since each State has different views on non-custodial parental conduct.

The support order will designate when support payments should end. Generally it is when the child reaches the age of majority for the state in which they reside and/or the order was issued. In most cases the non custodial parent can simply cease rendering payment when the age designated in the order has been reached by the minor child. It would be in the best interest of the obligated parent to obtain advice from a legal source to confirm he or she has completed all the terms of the support order before ceasing payment.
I can only answer for Ontario Canada. Here the cost should NOT come out of the child support payments the cost shoud be split proportionately (based on income) between both parents. The laws could be very different depending on where you reside. * The terms of the support agreement determine what is covered. Generally child care expenses are a separate issue and should be addressed as such in the support petition. If there are not stipulations in the support order the custodial parent will need to petition the court to have the order amended to include childcare and perhaps other expenses (educational, medical, etc.).
