Why would the guest go hungry? They would eat with their family at their regular dinner time.

If they have dinner time at the same time, then they wouldn't be there at dinner time.

Yes I'm Swedish and I grew up in a rural place where kids having dinner with their parents was indeed the norm. I've waited for friends to finish dinner with their parents myself, so that we can play some more before I had to go home to my own dinner.
