A child has to follow a visitation schedule until they are 18. They may stop visiting if the courts orders it.

How can you deny joint custody to an abusive parent?
YOU cannot deny any custody or visitation. Only the court can make an enforceable decision regarding these matters. State laws vary. If physical abuse is the case, the custodial parent will need a record of the abuse and should call the police, take pictures to record the effects, and try to have dis-interested witnesses present at the time of any contact between the parents. If there is no abuse to the children, or no abuse in the presence of the children, it is unlikely to make any change in the court decision for joint custody. It may compel the court to make some order for supervised exchange of the children for visitation. Only the court can make any decision, especially regarding custody. If the non-custodial parent is abusive to the children it may be very good grounds for a sole custody arrangement. It may also encourage the court to provide for supervised visitation. Visitation is a different issue than custody. Visitation is the means for the non-custodial parent to have a relationship with the children and build that relationship. A court generally regards this as semi-sacred. A custodial parent should NOT deny visitation. If it is necessary to curtail visitation for the real safety of the children, the custodial parent should immediately file a request for a change of visitation. Otherwise, a court may frown on a parent who denies visitation. In some states, continual denial of visitation can be grounds for a change of custody.

Can a mother deny visitation if the father is paying child support?
Whether or not a parent is paying child support is irrelevant when the issue is visitation rights.

If there is not a court order in place the custodial parent can make the decision to when, where or if visitation is allowed. Visitation guidelines are usually established during the custodial proceedings.

How can a child convince a parent to opt out of visitation?
Which parent...the custodial or non-custodial? If the custodial parent, that parent cannot make that decision. It must go before the court and a modification of visitation allowed or disallowed depending on the reasons given. Otherwise the custodial parent may be found in contempt of court which has very unpleasant consequences up to and including jail or changing custody to the non-custodial parent. If you are talking about the non-custodial parent, about all you can do is talk to them outlining your reasons why you do not wish to visit them, and even if they agree with you, again this is something that needs to be presented to the court to protect the custodial parent.
