It is not accurate information. It is in reality for most fathers a scenario of wishful thinking. Most often than not, the police will not intervene if visitation is witheld. Witholding my child is nothing more than kidnapping but for some interesting reason, law enforcement views it as a civil issue when a divorce transpires. You have to be rather wealthy and/or willing to wreck your credit and/or the life of your other family members to enforce a visitation issue. This is not the reality for most fathers who have been drained from the legal fees for defending themselves during a divorce (often in vain) and subsequently paying child support and/or alimony on a rotating basis.
I don't know how knowledgable Byz is about how to proceed but the response was status qo for someone who is experienced in this area.
Most fathers would get lost when a vague statement about potential recourse is made. Lost functionally, mentally, and financially.
There is VERY little help for anyone stuck in this situation. To the contrary, if a mother isn't paid her "child" support, she just gets in her car and explains the situation and enforcement is free. She is pampered through the process.
A father has to dig and be impeded the entire way.
This is the true grim reality of the situation.
