Could someone please clarify what the term "concede" means before I get into details about my situation. I hope it does'nt mean what I think it does. Thanks for any information. < Lost & Frustrated

is pretty much the same as your defs!

Conceded custody is usually when no defense / not contested is given to a proposed custody arrangement and the plantiff (CP) usually gets everything they asked for.

Isn't it?
