why do I have my child 50%+ but still pay her child suport?

After a long fight (with a one night stand) I received shared parental responsibility 50% with my little girl she is now 2.6 years old. We were never married and never lived together. I just found out she has been receiving wic all this time and did not put that on the payment arrangement form. I'm responsible for 60% of my little girls bills so i give her mother $225 a month+ 60% of daycare. Does this sound right?

I have not received one cent of the wic that her mom has been using. I think she lost her job recently and has been moving around. Every time I see her it�s with a different man. I just don�t like my little girl meting a new man every month. I have to stop her from hugging total strange men she is TOO friendly.
I�m married now with another child of my own a 3month old. I pay for everything when I have my child 50% of the time, can someone explain why I should be paying her money? Should she not also have to cut back on her personal expenses to put her child first?
I�m thinking about taking her back to court and trying for 100% she was recently committed into a mental hospital for a week and she never told me. When i found out about it i went to her house and found her outside at 10pm in a shirt and panties the 1 bedroom house with 3 adults was a mess. Dirty was an understatement. What is my next move? Yes the money is an issue but more importantly i just don�t feel she is putting it towards our child.
My lawyer is a mediator and i feel she is too soft. Should i find a shark?
