She would also know the runaways personally, and might feel a bit of a surrogate mother to one or more of them.
One added thought/angle.

If Falgarra still lives in the vicinity of her parents and there's a grand-motherly figure that she can leave her kids with, that would go a long way to greasing her emotional skids. She would still worry for home and her family, but knowing that they were cared for by someone who loves them that she trusts is a critical part of her making the choice to go.
