If the parenting plan allows for visitation and after the visitation period the child is not returned, then you get a pick up order from the Judge and have the Sheriff of the county where the child is, pick up the child. I suggest you be prepared to drive there to get the child if that happens because most times, the child is placed in a foster home until the parent arrives . This could be traumatizing for the child depending on the child's age.

If he violates the date restrictions imposed by the parenting plan then you can file a motion for contempt/enforcement.
