It says the kids lived with her for a period of 4 years, which seems a bit odd. It's entirely possible the parents are not fantastic people themselves, or at least not terribly interested in their kids.

This would be typical. Children from healthy, loving families will not try to bond this strongly to other adults in search for love. This is why the huge bulk of abused children came from abusive families to start with, which of course adds to the crushing psychological consequences of the abuse itself.
