You won't unless you file tax returns for the three years in question claiming the dependent.
If you've already filed tax returns without claiming the dependent, you should file amended tax returns for the years in question. The deadline for filing a 2005 amended return is April 15, 2009. It is too late to amend years before 2005. Once you file your returns, the IRS will contact you for additional information.
Note that if you e-file a return after someone else has claimed the same dependent, your e-file will be rejected. People erroneously assume this means that the first person to file gets the money. All it means is that the second person has to send in a paper return in order to begin the process of determining who gets the dependent.
Claiming a dependent is not dependent on the child support issue but rather on the amount of time the child spends with each parent.

Hope the IRS or the other person doesn't find out- because only one person can claim the same dependent in any given year. You can rotate years. If it is discovered that you both claimed the dependent in the same year and the IRS catches it - one of you will have your tax deduction voided and you will owe the IRS more money and maybe penalty fees. Hope you don't get caught!
The child would have to have their tax return amended and repay any money that they should not have got. If the parents also filed incorrectly, theirs would have to be amended as well.
You wouldn't get less money than you would if you claimed yourself. However if claim someone else you would expect more money, especially if you are claiming children. Being claimed as a dependent is a good thing a benefit. Anyone can only be claimed ONCE. That once can be on your own return, or on someone elses. If someone else claims you, so you can't on your own, your tax due (refund available), if any - will be changed by the loss of that deduction. (Pay more or refund less).
No, because that makes the child a dependent for tax purposes.
$3500 is the exemption for each dependent. $1000 is the child tax credit for kids under age 17. For kids under 17 that are your dependents you qualify for both the exemption and the credit. Note: Only the person filing the child as a dependent will receive the money.
No. The money that the person gets back for the tax refund is kind of a repayment for things that they have already done to support the dependent. It isn't money that belongs to the dependent.
If you have made over $9,350 and are not over 65, claimed by a parent you are required to file. If under this amount you can file to receive money that has been paid in.
Dependent pay usually begins within 30 days from the time the paper work is submitted.
If a person is appointed a legal guardian by the court they may receive money to help them support the person. This would be dependent on the state's laws for guardians.
