Child Custody There is a difference between custodial parents and non custodial parents.
Custodial parent is a term used for the parent that has primary physical custody of a child. Typically, the child resides with the custodial parent. Non-custodial parent refers to the parent that has the child for a lesser amount of time. Typically,l the child does not reside with the non-custodial parent except during the time that the non-custodial parent exercises his or her visitation rights with the child.
