What are the main factors the court is supposed to consider when determining a child support award in Florida?

The determination of child support is usually a statutory formula that is primarily dependant upon: (1) the income of each parent; (2) the overnights that each parent will have with the children; and (3) certain expenses of the children that will be paid by each parent (such as health insurance expenses and day care expenses).
