Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

joint custody who pays child support

I am a father who currently has joint custody of my 2 children. One is 16 and the other is 11. I have the children M-W-F and everyother weekend. The mother has them T-Th evenings. On her weekends she gets them saturday morning 11am until the following monday morning. I have the children in my care well over 60% of the time. We both make about the same amount of money.'' Am I able to get child support from her or will I have to pay because I make alittle more money than her?'' I also have full medical benefits for both children.
