A: Your ex wife can ask, and she will probably receive an increase in child support since you are allegedly not spending time with your daughter. Spending time with a child is a very important factor in determining child support. The amount of time a parent spends with the child will impact child support. In general terms, parents who spend less time with the child/children will pay more in child support. The income of each parent is also an important factor. If your ex wife is making a lot more money than you are, it's possible that the amount you are ordered to pay will decrease, but I suspect that is unlikely. More facts are required to provide a thorough analysis.
