Germany’s hidden hunger: On the breadline in Europe’s richest country (2017)
I volunteer for a &quot;Tafel&quot; in the center of Munich for about four months now, and here the main issue is related to immigrants. I can state with confidence that about 19 out of 20 people coming there have an arab background, and the vast majority have more than 7, sometimes even 10, people in total in their household. And you can see from the cards they need to show, that most of them are children.<p>Many of the migrant kids I&#x27;ve met can&#x27;t speak any German. Even kids that are already 10 years old. Thus I believe this situation will escalate even further in the future, as it will be very hard for these kids to get a proper education without the needed language skills.<p>It makes you feel really bad to see them growing up in such an environment without much chance for a better life. But ultimately this is due to their parents decision to have so many kids, even if they can&#x27;t afford simple food.
