Just like you can't go back to the first child's father and get your CS increased because now you have an additional expense of a second child.

The point was and my situation is a great example (we'll pretend he pays cs like ordered). If Thing 1's dad has another kid and is ordered to pay support, his cs from Thing 1 will be deducted from his income off the break. If I go for support for Thing 2 I will not be allowed to deduct my financial obligation for thing 1 off my income at all.

There is a worksheet that shows what each parent is responsible for financially. The non custodial gets to deduct that obligation off any furture cs cases but the custodial does not.
