In New Jersey, child support obligations generally remain in effect regardless of a child's refusal to visit the obligor parent. Child support is based on the financial needs of the child and the parents' income, not on the visitation arrangements. If a child refuses to visit, the obligor parent may need to seek legal advice or mediation to address the visitation issues, but it would not automatically reduce or eliminate their child support obligation. It's important for both parents to comply with court orders regarding support and visitation unless modified by the court.
