What age can my daughter tell her father she doesnt want to visit

My daughter's father moved over 70 miles away from us and has every other weekend visitation with her. She is now 13 and is very involved in sports and all the other things teenagers enjoy with their friends. At what age can she tell her father that she does not want to visit him on a scheduled weekend? He is very upset that she is thinking about this and is telling her that he gives her what I cannot and that she will start coming up every other weekend no matter what she has going on. He doesn't care if it upsets her or not. She does not want to cut ties with him, but wants to be able to live her life in her community that her dad choose to leave. We have a court order in Illinois that he has her every other weekend and 5 weeks in the summer. Can you please give me some insight into what her rights are?

WOW! As kids get older, into sports, & friends, it is harder to get them to go to dad's. I always made mine call their dad, if they could not go, & tell him about sports or dances that they wanted to go to, & switch week ends to accomodate him so he could have time with kids. Also, another option was, they asked to take a friend with them, which he allowed. It is great your ex wants into your daughters life, but sad for her if he will not allow her to be in sports.
