“was insisting that he come visit” or “was insisting that he should come visit”
Am I constructing the subjunctive correctly in this sentence?
Mary explained that Sarah was insisting on her son Rino visit his father at New York, a visit he had not made since her children were separated from their mother.
I asked Mary if Sarah was
telling her son, Rino, to visit him at the farm visitation. She replied with this: If sorry.

The first sentence is indeed in the subjunctive mood. I don’t know if the second one would still be considered subjunctive, but nevertheless, it is perfectly acceptable.
Well, except for one thing. Did you mean “as a girl” in New York?
I would say, “Mary explained that Sarah was insisting that her son, Rino, come visit his father New York.” But then she opted to let Sarah run away and send him back to St. Louis. But he didn’t return or return yet.Mary was then back to New York and the YOOC contacted him in August. ” But now I would write, “Mary explained that Sarah was insisting on her son, Rino, come to visit his father in California. I might also drop the “come to” and just say or write, “That her son, Rino, visit his father in New York” because this is more formal than “come visit”. “Come visit” is an informal way of saying it in English, usually American English; it should be “come to visit” because it needs the infinitive form after “come” rather than the bare infinitive. But my question also needs to be answered, so I may have a different English pronunciation. When a verb has no verb indefinites, it is a bare infinitive that has just before the verb. In this situation, however, it’s more informal than anything else. People get a new way with their usage of words, by saying things faster in any language and no one wants to say adscititious words like “to” there when they lack substance and are merely relational in context. In this passage the word “to” indicates a function and not a content. What are function words who have very little semantic structure and just mean relationship words?
Also, it probably should be “go” instead of “come” unless Mary lived in Ohio and were asking her daughter to come to New York to visit her father. If you had going to visit a restaurant, it would
be the same as “go visit” and not “go to visit”. Except “go to visit”
