How is child support determined if you support your kids with no government assistance but the mother gets government assistance?
In general, child support is a percentage of the obligor's net income. Whether or not the other parent/child receives public assistance is not relevant to this calculation. If the amount of support received is less than the public assistance grant, the State will retain the child support as reimbursement. If support exceeds the grant, the grant will be discontinued and the support will be forwarded to the other parent.

Can a Florida mother receive child support even if she owes child support on a previous case?
If the mother isn't receiving any kind of assistance from the government, she can waive the right to child support from the father, but it wouldn't be in the child's best interest. Child support is the child's right, not the mother's. If the mother were really well off financially, or if she didn't want the father anywhere around the child, she could waive the child's right to support. The father has a responsibility to help take care of the child he helped bring into this world.ClarificationGenerally, in the US, a mother cannot legally waive a child's right to support from their father. A child is legally entitled to be supported by both parents. However, the mother can choose to not involve the court if the parents were never married or if there will be no divorce action filed. However, if the mother doesn't want the money she should put in a college fund for the child.
