Freud believe that our personality is made up of the id, ego and super ego (we will discuss this later)

pleasure through the mouth◦ Ex. Nursing◦ If an infant wants to
explore something it immediately goes to the mouth.

There are few things a toddler can produce…..

they find pleasure? This is the stage of the
Oedipus complex and/or the Electra complex
