'Abandonment' is when a child is left somewhere with no parent, ie, the child has been ditched somewhere.

If the child is with one parent, it doesn't matter how long the other parent doesn't see it, it's never 'abandonment'.

Abandonment is a very broad spectrum when it concerns a child. Quite often this can be anywhere from 6 months to a year with no effort to make contact, or even to pay child support.
