In SC can an unemployed non-custodial parent request child support to be stopped if custodial parent is remarried and employed?
It can be modified, but not stopped.
Does the custodial parent have the right to quit job for more support?
In general, support is a percentage of the obligor's net income and is not affected by the custodial parent's income. A custodial parent who petitions for an increase in support would presumably have to explain to the court why s/he quit working.
Where does the burden of child support debt fall after the custodial parent becomes remarried?
It doesn't change.
How is support figured when the Non custodial parent is also the non custodial parent for 2 other families?
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.
Will the custodial parent get less child support if unemployed?

How come a father has to automatically pay for child support and a mother may not if the father is the custodial parent?

Does a non-custodial mother have to pay child support to the father?
Yes, if the father is the custodial parent. It works just the same as when the mother is the custodial parent. The non-custodial pay child support based on their income and other factors.
How is child support determined when custodial parent is married and unemployed?
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.

Explanation of what child support is used for?
Child support is based upon the income of the parents. The custodial parent does not need to prove what the child support was used for. The custodial parent is expected to provide housing, food, utilities, etc. to the child.
Does a new spouses income factor into what the non-custodial parent pay?
How much you pay is a set sum, in percentage of your income. Usually around 20-30%. That does not change if the person get remarried.
