Not if the person has a court ordered custody agreement. If no visitation/custody order is in place, it is at the discretion of the person who has custody of the child.

No. A father has the right to see their child. Only the court can bar visitations. A mother who refuses to allow the father his visitation rights risks losing custody.

A mother cannot stop a father from seeing his child unless a court has ordered that he not be allowed to see them. The mother can be held in contempt of court if she doesn't allow visitation.

Lacking a visitation order, yes. But unless it's dangerous for the child, it's not a good idea - children need both parents to thrive.

Can the mother of a minor who has had a baby dictate what happens with the baby Can she tell the babies mother that she can not let the baby go spend the night at the babies fathers house?

In most cases the mother of the child is considered permanently emancipated as far as the child is concerned. What this means is you can tell her she cannot spend the night with the father, but not that the child cannot spend the night with the father. That is up to the mother and father of the child. If you have what you consider valid concerns about the health and safety of the child while it's with the father, you will have to take your daughter to court.
