Determining Who Pays

Several factors go into determining who pays child support and how much that person must pay. These factors are listed below:

- The needs of the child. This includes health insurance, educational needs, day care and special needs.

- The needs of the custodial parent.

- The paying parent's ability to pay.

- The standard of living of the child before the divorce.
