My friend 's parents claimed me as thier own and said I was welcome any time . The mother has gone out of her way to make me vegetarian food and even my friends niece and nephew like to play with me . The family is really excited because I have been able to teach the nephew a little english , which is so cute !
According to the above context, answer the following question.
What may be the reason for other people claiming someone as their own ?


That someone does n't have parents that care .
