T4A income child benefit questions for my own CPP Disability income.

I recieve CPP Disability income as well as the child benefit portion. My 2 kids (ages 11 & 14) received T4As for the child benefit portion. When Iist each of their Box 20 income under dependent info under 'Net income (T1, line 23600)' my return drops by over $300. Why? It's non-taxable isn't it? Am I doing something wrong?

Also, I have shared (50/50) custody and I usually claim 1 child as an 'eligible dependent ' and their dad claims the other child. Does he also have to list each of their T4A income?
