It depends on the state you live in and what changes you are attempting to make. Also if they have an attorney who is willing to take the responsibility for not verifying that they were informed.
Usually tho the parent who does show wins by default.
That depends on prevailing law in the court of jurisdiction. Usually, the non-complaint parent would be found in contempt of court and fined and/or jailed based on the same depending on their excuse for not showing up. If the non-compliance becomes chronic, they may endanger their status of custodial parent (lose custody to the other parent or otherwise have the original custody order modified to favor the parent who remains in compliance).
If no prior continuance has been requested, a default order in favor of the other parent.
A continuance, or a default order in favor of the non-custodial parent.

The court will enter a default judgment against them. Better to show up and have a say in what is going to happen.
Judge will rule on the case as it is presented. Most likely granting the divorce as long as you have proven the facts in the bill of complaint.
file a motion to enforce. see Dads House link below
In Florida, what is taken into consideration is the custodial AND non-custodial parents income. An affidavit is filed in court (for the hearing), to accurately provide the financial information on both parents. Those numbers need to be verified and are used to determine the custodial parents' financial obligation for all expenses regarding the childrens' needs AND the non-custodial parents' obligation for the same. Usually 49% and 51% respectively. For example: Custodial parents' income is higher than non-custodial. 4 teenagers in High School (no daycare) with higher than normal expenses for food, clothing etc. No medical issues require a total of $1200/month to raise. Custodial parent- 49%= $588 (doesnt have to be paid because you have kids) Non-custodial parent-51%= $612 (you are "awarded" this amount) IF SHE EVEN PAYS
Yes A GREAT AMOUNT it doesnt have great sight
It will die
Until a change of custody order, the custodial parent has the decision power in the matter, however it can be considered child abandonment.
