Initially, Scrooge had disowned him. This was in part because when he was born his mother, who was Scrooge's sister Fan, died in childbirth, but also because Fred had married someone who did not bring money to the marriage. However, Scrooge learns that he must accept and understand and seeks forgiveness from Fred and his wife on Christmas Day.
Fred states "Christmas is a good time: a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys." It is this that Fred loves about the sacred time of year.
