Hello, I live in Florida. My x owes over $28,000 child support in arrears and behind on $2,800 current child support. He is trying to get custody of 16 year old child. If child does go to live with him, I guess that means I would have to pay him child support? My question, would that amount be deducted from his arrears or would I actually have to pay? I don't think I will ever get money he owes from many years. The above figures don't count interest or medical expenses he was supposed to reimburse. All in all he owes me around $60,000.
I have mostly raised 2 children on my own for 12 years. One child is now grown.
Thanks in advance for any information regarding how the courts will calculate if indeed a custody change occurs.
