Because if people find them, they ask, "Where are your parents?"

Alright, listen here, brainiac. When a kid gets lost, the normal thing to do is ask where their parents are so you can reunite them. But an orphan, by definition, doesn't have parents. The joke is based on the dark humor of this common question being deeply inappropriate and painful for the person being asked. The author, like many people who think this is peak comedy, probably just figured out the punchline and thought it was hilarious. You're welcome.
