1. Any child support obligation may be adjusted by the court in accordance with the specific needs of the child and the economic circumstances of the parties based upon the following factors and specific findings of fact:

(a) Any special educational needs of the child;

(b) The legal responsibility of the parties for the support of others;

(c) The value of services contributed by either party;

(d) Any public assistance paid to support the child;

(e) The cost of transportation of the child to and from visitation;

(f) The relative income of both households, so long as the adjustment does not exceed the total obligation of the other party;

(g) Any other necessary expenses for the benefit of the child; and

(h) The obligor's ability to pay.

2. The court may include benefits received by a child pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 402(d) based on a parent's entitlement to federal disability or old-age insurance benefits pursuant to 42 U.S.C. §§ 401 to 433, inclusive, in the parent's gross income and adjust an obligor's child support obligation by subtracting the amount of the child's benefit. In no case may this adjustment require an obligee to reimburse an obligor for any portion of the child's benefit.
