Scrooge cannot bear to hear children sing because he associates their singing with joy, happiness, and innocence, all of which he has long since dismissed in his own life due to his focus on wealth and accumulation. The contrast between the children's genuine happiness and his own hardened heart serves as a stark reminder of what he has lost.
