The short answer is "yes". If a custody agreement has not been set and lawyers are not involved then the mother does not have to let anyone see her child. However, if the father's name is on the birth certificate, he may have the same rights. In some states, the father listed on the birth certificate (especially if the couple were married) has as much right to "protect" his child as the mother, meaning he can keep the child away from the mother until the court arranges custody.

How can you live with your mom in new york instead of your dad in minnesota you are 12 years old?
If the court awarded custody of you to your Dad it will take action by the court to change your living arrangements. Your Mom would have to petition (ask) the court that gave you to your Dad, for your custody -or- your Dad would have to tell the same court that he was willing to turn your custody over to your Mom. If your Dad and your Mom are on speaking terms maybe they can come to some kind of agreement over this and they could both talk to the court to have the custody order changed. The thing is:(#1) Are you sure your Mom wants you to live with her in NY? And, (#2) there may be reasons (that you don't know about), WHY the court wants you to be with your Dad rather than your Mom.
