Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

My wife and I are going to get divorced,initiated and paid for by her, and we are both living in the same house while going through this time and she and her lawyer want me to pay 1100.00 dollars of child support while still making the mortgage payment and insurance for the cars. Can I be made to pay child support while still supporting the children in many different ways and living at home during this time.
