yes, unless court order says otherwise.
If the children are leaving the country, yes. See related question link.
Not necessarily. Unless there is a restraining order in place barring the father from the children, he still has parental rights. If there is an order barring the step mother from the children, then the father still has visitation, but he cannot have them around his wife, nor can he speak about her to the children, or even so much as sign her name on a birthday card for the children.
Children can't move anywhere. The mother is moving them away from the father. 50 mile limit without court approval
You have the visitation rights that were established in the divorce, and you have no custody rights.
You cannot force her to go and don't make her but what you should do is find out why she does not want to see her as sometimes (heaven forbid) they are being abused in some way or another and of course it could just be rebellion if he is just strict.
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).
If there is a relative or someone close to the family supervising it has to be someone both parents agree on. Otherwise the court will choose one.
In cases where the parents of minor children are unmarried the mother generally retainssole custodial rights until the father files a custodial suit. However, this does not mean the mother of the minor children can arbitrarily deny the father's rights of visitation.
First, the father must be sure that the mother did not receive permission from the family court to move. If the mother did not get permission from the family court, the father can immediately go to his local family court, and file for full custody of his children. Upon hearing that the mother absconded with the children, a judge will issue an Amber Alert for the children. The children will be retrieved from the state the mother took them to and be returned to the father. Usually this results in the mother receiving supervised visitation for quite a while, since she cannot be trusted to follow a court order.
It depends on what you want to do. If you don't mind about the father rarely visiting, then there are no steps to be taken. It really is a matter on what you want to do about the father rarely visiting his child.
