What if the child's custodial parent is gone for most of the year and the child wants to be with the non custodial parent?

Then the child should petition the court (or have the non-custodial parent petition the court, more likely) to modify the custody order. If the custodial parent is "gone for most of the year" and leaving the child in the care of someone else, the court will probably consider that a significant factor.

Does custodial parent have to provide phone service for child?
Absolutely not. Shelter, food and clothing basics are it. If the child wants phone service, he/she should go to work and earn the money. Or, if the non-custodial parent differs, and the custodial parent agrees, he can pay for it.
When the custodial parent passes away and the non custodial parent becomes the custodial parent does the minor child have a say where he wants to live?
The most likely scenario is that the children will live with the other parent as long as that parent was not deemed unfit while the custodial parent was alive. If that parent was denied custody for cause the courts may consider another gaurdian should the non custodial parent still be considered unsuitable.
What do you about support when you are the non-custodial parent and the custodial parent wants to hand over the child to you?
They can't simply "give the child to you." You need to return to the court and have the custody order modified so you'll have legal custody. It will go easier if the current custodial parent consents to the modification. At that time the current support order should be terminated and you can request child support if you wish.

Can an ex move guy after guy in her house with your child in the home?
An ex can do what she wants in her private life as long as she's the only one affected. Her behavior also affects the child. The non-custodial parent should consult with an attorney. That is not in the best interest of the child and may give the non-custodial parent a boost in asking for a change in custody. That kind of behavior on the part of the mother may place the child at risk.An ex can do what she wants in her private life as long as she's the only one affected.
