One of the things that I think MLP: FiM strives for is to show kids familial relationships that they can relate to, such as Spike the orphan Dragon being raised by the Pony Twilight, Scootaloo the independent waif (who may or may not actually have parents) pretty much taking care of herself or the Apples being raised by their Granny because their parents are absent (apparently due to having died). Things like this happen in reality, thus children in these real situations can relate to these characters.
