Can child support be used to pay bills and only bills?
Yes, it can be used to pay bills and only bills, but it doesn't have to be put toward bills.

Florida Statute 827.08 Misuse of child support money --Any person who willfully misapplies funds paid by another or by any governmental agency for the purpose of support of a child shall, for the first offense, be guilty of a misdemeanor of the first degree...and for a second or subsequent conviction under this section, be guilty of a felony of the third degree...
A person shall be deemed to have misapplied child support funds when such funds are spent for any purpose other than for necassary and proper home, food, clothing and the necessities of life, which expenditure results in depriving the child of the above named necessities.
