Generally, minor children have no right to disobey.

If a child choses to disobey the parents there is not much the parents can do asside from try to reason with them. ii's a Catch 22 situation, only the children have rights the parent only have laws restraining them.

If a child becomes institutionalised as a result of a disagreement they are mixed with criminals to hold up as an example.

Yes. A child is a minor and not an adult therefore they must do what their parents want and go where they go. As long as it isn't child abuse or breaking the law it is correct that the parents tell a child what to do.

Where to enter child's w2 income?

On the child's Form 1040, 1040A, or 1040EZ. A separate tax return must be filed by the child (or for the child if the child is too young). A parent cannot report a child's W-2 income on the parent's tax return. The only time a parent can report a child's income on the parent's return is if the kiddie tax applies and the child's only source of income is interest and dividends.

Can a parent refuse to pick up his child on the scheduled custody day?

Yes, custody days are meant to nourish the child/parent bond, not some legal agreement that must be kept. If the parent can not or will not pick up the child then there is nothing legally wrong with it. It becomes an inconvience to pack up the child and everything for nothing, but it is not illegal in any form.

You are under 18 do you need to file a return?

There is no exception to the filing requirements because of age. If you had sufficient income or you want to claim a refund, then you have to file regardless of your age. Obviously, a parent should file on behalf of a child who is too young to handle something like that. But a parent cannot report a child's income or withholding on the parent's return (one exception: if the child's only income is interest and dividends and the child is subject to the kiddie tax). A separate return must be filed on behalf of the child.

Can a 12 year old child choose not to visit their non-custodial parent in the state of New Jersey?

No they may not. The custodial parent has the responsibility to ensure their minor child abides by the terms of the visitation order until the child reaches the age of majority in Oklahoma, which is 18. Otherwise, the custodial parent could be found in contempt of court and fined/jailed based on the same. However the child is always free to make their wishes known to the judge, either in court when custody is being decided, by requesting a meeting with the judge, writing a letter to the judge expressing their wishes, or engaging an attorney or guardian ad litem to speak for them. The judge will take into consideration the wishes of the child, and generally, the older the child, the more weight is given to those wishes. Ultimately, however, the judge will rule depending on what he or she feels would be in the best interests of the child.
