Depending on the ages of the children, you can fight the issue or not. However, if you look for the positive side, it may be a better place for your ex to work and have family support to raise the children. You will have to work harder to make sure that your kids get to see the best of you--hopefully, you can amicably call and talk to them, have them to visit for some time over the summer, or come to visit them in their new home town. The challenge is going to be to make it all positive. Getting into the fight of location, child support linked to visitation and all of that will prove to be a negative event in the eyes of your children, even if the ex keeps them out of the drama. I don't mean to sound heartless, but parenting in any circumstance is difficult, and in the longterm, you want those kids to keep in touch with you, especially when they are grown and become interesting.
No, the court can bar a custodial parent from taking the child out of state away from the non-custodial parent, but cannot force the custodial parent to relocate to be closer to the NCP after they move.
Unclear of the intent of the question, but see related question.
Well if it's the opposing parent, i.e. the other parent who has visitation, then the custodial parent has to inform the court before they moved and visit that with the court, and if they didn't then the visitation parent should have issues with the court of the original jurisdiction.
Not at all! The custody agreement should stipulate how far away each parent can move from the other. Even if the non-custodial parent moved far away, they may still get time with the child. The worst that would happen is the custodial parent would be awarded full custody and the non-custodial parent would get visits.
If there's a court order you are both responsible for the child being able to see both parents. You both moved and now you have to share the expenses. Neither of you could have moved without the other's consent so you must've known this would be a problem.
Only the court has the power to deny visitation rights.
It depends on what the child support documents indicate. Some parents split the cost 50/50, while for others the cost of vistitation lies on the shoulders of the parent who moved to another state.
Yes. The non-custoduial parent can report the situation to the court and sue the custodial parent for the return of all money paid.

Yes, if the non custodial parent wanted to file suit to have the support order amended or rescinded it should have been done when the child dropped out of school and/or moved from the custodial parent's residence. A child support order is valid until the child reaches the age of majority for the state where the order was issued or the age stated in the support order or unless the order is changed or ceased by order of the court.
Yes, the non-custodial parent must obey the child support order until it is modified or terminated by the court. If the child has moved out the NC parent can petition the court to have the child support order terminated. The court will review the case and render a decision.
No. Ordinary citizens do not have the power or authority to revoke parental rights. That is the province of the court. You have to petition a court, present your evidence and let the judge decide.
You continue to pay support until otherwise ordered by the court. If the parent moved out of state without court permission or in violation of a custody order interfering with the non-custodial parent's visitation rights, the non-custodial parent may file an action against the custodial parent for the same, or file for a modification in visitation, forcing the custodial parent to return the child for visitation as outlined in the original order.
