The current system in which child support is based on is not a very honest system. The current system that is in place not only on a lower income (even middle class) individual who is paying the child support ends up with hardly even enough money to pay for gas to get to work. Using a percentage based amount based on income is unfair. It is saying that one child's needs is more than another because someone makes more money it should be a universal amount and dependent on age and cost. also there is no tax relief for someone paying this at all. There should also be a way for people receiving support to provide substantial proof of the child's expenses to warrant such support.
