My mother-in-law was a little like this. She had two children naturally and has adopted two. My father-in-law is now 60 and my mother-in-law is 57 and they still have a 19 year old and a 13 year old at home. Fine for them, I guess, but they clearly don't have the energy to deal with the 13 year old, particularly since she has some learning disabilities and is generally a pain in the ass.
