How is support figured when the Non custodial parent is also the non custodial parent for 2 other families?

Does non custodial parent pay for school activity's?
It really depends on how the court has structured the support. In the event of a divorce or other court ordered settlement for child support, the non-custodial may have to pay 50% of everything, or just the monthly support. If this is state ordered support (i.e. in the case of paternity issues, where there was no real relationship), the non-custodial parent usually only has to pay monthly support. I would suggest looking into the support documents to determine what needs to be paid.
Can the custodial parent have the child support set higher or lower than the court has ordered?
Parents do not set child support; courts set child support.

Does the non-custodial parent need to have insurance on the child when paying child support in Texas?
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.
Who is required to pay child support?
The person ordered to, which does not necessarily mean the non-custodial parent.AnswerGenerally, the non-custodial parent with some states awarding credit for time spent for visitations.
If you have shared parental responsibility of a child and the father just moved out of the country and left his child with the mother is that abandonment and did he just give up his rights?
Not necessarily, states have control over domestic issues. The laws of the state where the custody order was obtained determine what constitutes abandonment. If the person is still paying court ordered child support it would not be construed as abandonment. Contacting the attorney who assisted in the original custody agreement might help in obtaining more specific information.
