I know that it seems as if this is an invasion of some privacy issue that involves you but take my word for it that the language that the judge has included in the order is pretty standard these days in all agreements between parties and orders of the court.  In agreements made between parties the attorneys will make sure that the parties sit down to reevaluate the support issue to determine if there has been a change in income of both parties to necessitate a change in support for the children.  This is generally done around tax time (April 15th).  So you can balk but I would ask your lawyer about it first.
