IDK... I think I have always assumed that she is an orphan in foster care. Her comments that there was never anypony to give her praise and encouragement (paraphrased). Her reaction to Rainbow's parents could be seen as an extension of her wishing Rainbow was her big sister. Through this, Scoot was having parents vicariously.

I love scoot so much!
