How do the roles of caregivers compare to those of parents?

A caregiver is someone who helps care for or support a child; this role can be filled by a parent or by another person. Therefore, caregivers are part of a child’s support structure, but not all caregivers are parents. The other choices incorrectly limit caregivers by their relationship to the child, where they provide care, or custody status.
