The children are supose to go to the absent parents home until the age of 18,however at a certain age the court will not enforce that the child go if the child is unconforiable with the other parent. Depending how old the child is the court will consider the age of the child and that is usally at the age of 13 and older. If the abent parent were to take you to court for not letting the child visit the court could find you in contempt. But if youu go to the hearing and talk to the judge he will probary order the child and the absent parent into counciling together to work out thier feelings. So it is up to you to talk to the father and see what is going on that your child feels like this and see if you two can try to help her to understand how imporant it is for the both of them to work this out outside of court.
