Kids going hungry? I had bad parents, so they must have bad parents too.
I can say with a great deal of confidence that at leat 95% of "hungry children" have terrible parents. What possible excuse is there? Ok, perhaps Mom has slipped into a diabetic coma and can't make dinner. I'm struggling to think of other ways a parent can allow a child to go hungry without it being the parent's fault. Medical emergencies, that's about it.

My personal experiences are relevant. You can't talk about hungry children and then tell me my experience as a hungry child is irrelevant.
