In this economy where there are six men for each job, what do you expect him to get. As for the children, denying him access is several times more costly to the children and the trouble they could bring upon society as teens and adults. Non-payment of child support doesn't create murders. Fatherless children do. see link below.

The court will enter a default judgment against them. Better to show up and have a say in what is going to happen.
Child support and visitation are separate matters. If you do not have court-ordered visitation rights, get them. If you do, go back to court to enforce them - the law is taking an increasingly dim view of custodial parents who deny court-ordered visitation.
Yes and the choice of visitation is not up to her, it's up to the judge. If he is the biological father and have proved paternity in court, he can petition for custody, visitation and pay child support. She has no legal right to keep the other parent away from the child.
Yes, the location unless living in your home doesnt take away your obligation to support the child. In fact, if you have no custody or visitation it actually increases your financial responsibility.
If there is a court order for visitation or shared custody and child support she will need his and the courts permission. The visitation order still have to work since both him and his child have the right to see each other. So she can move but not with the child.
hello I am going through the same thing, my son is 16 years old and doesnt want to visit his dad because of his inconsistency of being involved in his life his father has just filed for visitation rights and I dont know whats going to happen. I hope the court listens to my sons wishes, even if he decides to visit only sometimes
That depends on where you live. In some states, if the non-custodial parent refuses to hold up their end of the bargain in the custody agreement, which often includes provisions regarding child support, he may have visitation rights or other parental rights terminated if deemed so by the court of jurisdiction. In other states, child support and visitation are two separate issues that do not overlap. While the custodial parent can file an action against the person not paying child support, the fact that he isn't paying won't interfere with visitation, at least not until he goes to jail for failure to pay. You would have to contact an attorney in your state of residence for more information.
Child support and child custody are handled separately. In most cases delinquent child support payment does not affect the rights of the father. The father can still petition to avoid you moving the child out of state but, doesn't necessarily mean it will be granted. Unless both parents can come to an arrangement/agreement in what's in the best interest of the child.
