The answer depends on the formula used to calculate child support in your jurisdiction. Generally, most states rely on a formula that uses a percentage of the non-custodial parent's wages so if the custodial parent gets a raise in pay it may not offset the NC parent's obligation.

You have to petition the judge for a reduction due to lower wages. It doesn't happen automatically.
No. You still have to pay your part and they pay theirs.
If the custodial parent agreed to deviate from the original child support amount, she can increase it back to the original amount if there is a court order. In additional, the non-custodial parent may have to pay back child support for the time when he paid less.
No. The non custodial parent's income and assets in conjunction with state laws pertaining to the issue determine the amount of child support that should be paid. The income of the custodial parent is only considered in very rare circumstances.
Yes, if it is so ordered in the child support agreement. If the parent loses their insurance and the custodial parent has the ability to insure the child - it will be possible for the state to order the custodial parent to do so. This may change the amount of support the non custodial parent pays - it is entirely up to the whim of the courts.
Support for the oldest non-custodial child is a percentage of the non-custodial parent's net income. For the next oldest non-custodial child, the NCP's income is reduced by the amount of support ordered and actually paid for the older child, and so forth.
No he can not.
If there is a current order for support the custodial parent would need to file suit to have the amount increased regardless of the circumstances of the non custodial parent.
I do not think that all states are standardized yet but in Nevada it is 25% of the non custodial parents income for the first child and then an added amount of something like 3% for every additional child. The custodial parents income or marital status does not factor in at all.
Tipically, no! The amount is calculated and based on the income of the other parent. If you have an additional information on the other parent making more money and the court needs to know about it, you have the right to contact the court and request an investigation and modification of the child support payment.
The custodial parent (the one who has the child/children) is receiving SSI that is not included in the decision of the amount of support paid by the non custodial parent. If the non custodial parent is receiving SSD or SSI or other public assistance it is included in the decision for the amount of child support granted and such benefits can be garnished.

Child support is the non-custodial parent's portion of the expenses of the child, including housing, food, clothing and so on. It is up to the custodial parent whether an "allowance" can be paid to the child from the child support amount.
yes
The custodial parent is the parent with custody/guardianship of the child.
