If you are the primary conservator for the children, The father will be ordered to pay you child support. based on his resources. If he is paying support tothe person who has custody of his other child then the percentage he is ordered to pay you is reduced by a few percentage points. For example for three children in a case the support is 30%, but that would be reduced to 27.38% of his net resources because he is supporting another child outside your case. His net resources are his monthly gross minus taxes. He will also be ordered to provide or pay for health and dental insurance for the children.
