If your name is on the birth certificate as the father, you can sue for visitation in court. Get a lawyer and file a suit. The mother will be compelled to come to the court and abide by its decision.

If your name is not on the birth certificate, you will have to establish paternity. This could be drawn out and involve a lot more lawyers and money.

My name is on the birth certificate, we live in different states and I would like to see more of my son in my home town. Do you think I would be able to do that?

If the father of a child gets married and owes back child support can the spouse be obligated to pay his back child support in CA?

An unmarried father cannot "choose" to not pay child support. The laws in every state require that a father pay for the support of his child. The mother must bring an action to the appropriate court so that a child support order can be established. Visitation rights are separate and a father can have visitation rights established by the court. Visitation rights are not dependent on paying child support.
