Big family = two parents who are gallivanting around Equestria and left Scoots in charge of her aunt and her aunt’s roomie. Whose idea of caretaking is living out of town and subbing the job out to whatever volunteers in Ponyville they can get.
As I said before, for all the parenting Scootaloo is getting, she may as well be an orphan.
“…Not sure how that works, but okay.”
Rainbow dash: what are you talking about yes I do
Explosion is heard in the distance
Scootaloo: not anymore
Scootaloo: “I don’t see how…”
Rainbow: “Na na na na na na Scootloo! Na na na na na na na Scootloo! na na na na na na na na na na na na na Scootloo! SCOOTALOO!”
It’s just that she barely ever sees them and they don’t take any interest in her life…
…That’s actually worse than dead parents, isn’t it?
Batman.
Good comment
Thank you!

Specifically - They work demanding jobs and Scoots is good at evading her babysitter. Faust doesn’t understand why people take it to a bad place.
Then she and Big Jim had a sweet little Twitter exchange where Jim promised to do what he could to keep it true, and that he was just custodian of the world she created.
Even ignoring all that, we can logically infer that unlike for the Apples, it actually makes no sense for Scootaloo to be an orphan - We’ve seen her house and room, and we can also observe she’s clearly having a normal childhood. It would furthermore make 2/3 of the CMC orphans, which is incredibly farfetched.
Scootaloo is either an orphan, or has parents who’ve never offered her a bit of encouragement in her life. You decide which is more tragic.
You’re so adamant about it, you can still speak your mind in the comments section on Scootaloo’s article.
Arguing with wiki admins is about a fun as… doing something decidedly unfun and demoralizing. (I’m too tired for witty metaphors.)
Would you like to try to tell the editors on the wiki that they can’t use that citation, then?

Much like a verbal contract isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on, what staff say makes no difference to the universe they create. That goes triple for Lauren since she hasn’t been part of the creative staff for years.
Canon is what’s published in official works. Until we see it on-screen one way or the other, we just don’t know.
I think Lauren Faust said at a convention panel that Scootaloo does have parents, but they’re just so far unseen in the show.
i think her parents are just travelling all the time so she practically lives alone. I think one of the creators of the show said that.
