If the couple were not married then the father must establish paternity before any other action is taken, (custody, visitation, child support). Although it is possible for the child to hold dual citizenship the father would have to pursue parental rights issues through Mexican courts. The best option is to consult with an attorney who is knowledgeable in Domestic International Law. American Bar Association offers a free nationwide attorney referral service. http://www.abanet.org

As many rights as the mother wishes to allow until the father protects himself with court ordered visitation and decision making rights. In some states, the father may have certain intrinsic rights, but you would need to provide where you reside and the state (or country if outside the USA) where the child legally resides.

How can you know if a child has been taken away from her mother if the mother does not want to tell the father of the child or the father's family?

One would assume the father has access rights and would figure out the child no longer resides with the mother. He will be notified that the child support will be going to a different receiver. see links below
