Unless the order states that he is given a discount on support for having the child in excess of a certain amount of days it is presumed the court ordered visitation is figured already in the support and the amount stated is owed every week, 52 weeks a year.

It doesn't matter what he (or even you) "say". What does matter is what the court order says. Read your CO, if there isn't a provision in it for abatement during extended visits just show him the order.
