Child Support Question?

Dear Ben:

Greetings. Try out our child support calculator and see if there is a difference. If you obligated yourself to pay for the other child, even though the child is not biologically yours, you may be compelled to pay child support to this child for the rest of your life, even if you were just trying to be nice. Best of luck.

I am on my 2nd marriage to a woman who has 3 children. I adopted them about 3 years ago. They are all minor children. I have 2 children from a previous marriage, one is my biological child the other is not mine at all. I only pay on the 2nd one because I wanted to at the time, tho I still am paying. I no longer see the children much anymore since ex-wife moved to a different state. Would the 3 children that I have now be a good reason to have my child support adjusted or would they be taken into consideration? Our divorce agreement took place in NC. Thanks.
