It's not Kobo alone. It has to do with any bookseller, because most of the books that are sold have some kind of DRM on them. Don't forget, ebooks are not paper-books. When you buy an e-book, you are not actually buying the book, you are buying a license to use it, and in most cases, that license is personal and protected with DRM.

By the way, your aunt can of course always give her own reader to niece/nephews temporarily!
