👉 The term "noncustodial" refers to a situation where one party is not directly involved in the legal proceedings, and therefore, they are not allowed to participate in the decision-making process. Noncustodial relationships can include a spouse who has been married for a significant period of time or a parent who has remarried. In noncustodial situations, the other party may have more control over the child's life and may be able to make decisions on behalf of the child.
