She has good reasons. Not all born are gifted with well-graced home lives.

She is asked 'the question'.

I suggest as answer that she (and others), while born into birthing bodies, is (are) karmically advanced beyond the inherent human selfishness manifest in the root-desire to reproduce the self.

Some are born to repeat the familiar and well practiced past; others to reveal the unknown and practice now for the future.
