    Default Will a Change of Health Insurance Affect the Amount of Child Support

    My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Massachusetts

    My wife and her ex husband have a 3 year old. 3 year old lives with us, and ex pays CS.

    Wife and I were recently married. We own a home together. I have a son myself that I pay CS for. In comparing health plans, my family plan has the best coverage so the plan is to move the 4 of us to my plan.

    Ex husband caught wind of this, and wants a reduction of CS due to the health insurance no longer being a direct expense for her.

    My question is whether this is valid? I can actually see both sides of this. Technically, my wife is no longer paying that out of her pocket, but we've long since combined expenses, and consider health insurance to be a household expense.
