§48-13-103. Financial contributions of both parents to be considered.

The guidelines promulgated under the provisions of this article take into consideration the financial contributions of both parents.

These guidelines consider the financial contributions of both parents in relationship to total income, so as to establish and equitably apportion the child support obligation.
