Who were the two children the Spirit had under his robe?

The second thing that Scrooge notices about the Spirit is what Scrooge describes as "a foot or a claw" protruding from underneath the Spirit's robe. The Spirit opens his robe to reveal two wretched children, a boy and a girl. The Spirit identifies the boy as "Ignorance" and the girl as "Want," or poverty.

What did the Spirit tell Scrooge about them?

There was a girl and a boy. The boy is Ignorance, the girl is Want. The Spirit said to beware of them both.

How has Scrooge's perspective changed as a result of his experiences in Stave Ill? "

Scrooge changed in a number of ways as a result of his visit with the Ghost of Christmas Present, mainly because of the tactics employed by the spirit. The Ghost of Christmas Present relies heavily on shock value to get Scrooge to change.
