Generally, if the parents are unmarried the mother has sole custody and control in most states until the father can establish his paternity. Remember, a child's mother can always be identified by medical records. Since the father didn't give birth and he was not legally married at the time of the birth he must establish his paternity by signing the birth certificate at the time of birth (waiving DNA testing rights) which must be done with mother's consent. If he doesn't sign the birth certificate then he must seek another way to establish his paternity and that is done through a DNA test. A paternity test can be arranged through the court and once established the father can request visitations, custody and set up a schedule of regular child support payments for the child.

Does a 17 year old have to visit father in a joint parenting plan that requires visitation rights for the father?
If the court order says the father has visitation rights, then the father has visitation rights and what the 17 year old thinks about it doesn't legally matter any more than the 17 year old would be able to get a court to find him not guilty of stealing something on the grounds that he really, really wanted it and couldn't pay for it.So, yes. The 17 year old has to visit the father. The court can't require him to be happy about it, but they can require him to do it.
