If one parent has full custody does that mean that the other parent gives up all rights and visitation to that child?

No. Courts are very concerned that children have the opportunity to spend time with both parents. Unless there are mitigating circumstances, such as proven previous abuse. Even in this scenario, the court could order supervised visitation.

∙ 16y agoBecause it's almost always in a child's best interest to have a relationship with both parents, courts are generally reluctant to take away visitation rights. In some states, custody orders may give "primary" physical custody to one parent and "partial" physical custody to another parent. Very rarely does one parent get "full" custody of the child without at least visitation to the other parent. If you are the parent who does most of the caregiving and the other parent is not attending visits as scheduled, document the missed visits, especially any times the visits are scheduled and then cancelled or the parent just fails to arrive for visits. This information can help in court.
