personally or of any other person to support the minor, or (2) any other
income or property of the minor which may be applicable or available for
the support of the minor.

(b) On petition of an interested person or the minor if the minor has

deliver or pay to the minor or expend for the minor's benefit so much of
the custodial property as the court considers advisable for the use and
benefit of the minor.

addition to, not in substitution for, and does not affect any obligation
of a person to support the minor.
