If you have a court order of the custody agreement you can call the police.
An unmarried father cannot "choose" to not pay child support. The laws in every state require that a father pay for the support of his child. The mother must bring an action to the appropriate court so that a child support order can be established. Visitation rights are separate and a father can have visitation rights established by the court. Visitation rights are not dependent on paying child support.
He absolutely cannot. The mother can call the police and they can take the child back. Most likely will he loose visitation rights if he does this or it will be supervised or in the mothers home.
If you are not married and there is no custody or visitation order, she has custody automatically. The father have to prove paternity in court by a DNA test and then petition for custody or visitation. He can then also pay child support.
Supposedly, visitation is not connected to child support. However, if a warrant is out there, your child could end up not being cared for. Perhaps you should seek legal advice as to whether this is a reasonable worry.
If the mother filed for it, and if the judge approves a retroactive order.
If the mother have visitation right granted by the court the father can not stop her from seeing her child. If he does she can get help from the police and also report him back to the court so they know he broke the court order.
If he has them and refuses to return them you can call the police. If you want him to have legal physical custody the both of you need to go back to court and have the custody order modified and the father's child support order terminated.

Do you have a court order saying you have visitation? Are you the biological father? If so then YES. Go back to court and file for custody.
You have custody unless there is a court order saying otherwise. The father kidnapped him. Since you were never married he would have to go to court to get his parental rights and custody, visitation and pay child support. If he has not done that he has no rights to the child. So call the police.
No. The child doesn't get to decide until the age of 18. Until then, if there is court-ordered visitation, it must be followed. The child does not have the option of refusing. If there is a *legitimate* reason that the child does not want to visit the non-custodial parent, then the custodial parent needs to go back to court and request that the visitation order be modified.
No. You would be signing away your rights to visitation. A parent generally signs away their rights in preparation for a legal adoption.
