?what do they symbolize?how are they "mans children?"

I think you are referring to the orphans inside the robe of the ghost of Christmas present. These children belong to mankind. Society must take responsibility for them. People must love orphans because they are a gift from God.

I think its goofy that Im doing a sheet of paper with this exact question on it, wording and everything. Actually every question this guy asks about christmas carol is on the paper. This was made 7 years ago and were still doing it today
