PSYCOSEXUAL STAGES OF DEVELOPMENT
According to Freud's theory we have innate tendency to
seek physical stimulation especially the areas which are
sensitive to stimulation like mouth, genital and the anus.
these areas were referred as ‘the erogenous zones’
Freud believe that if a child needs at one of the
psychosexual stages were either unsatisfied
or over satisfied, fixation takes place
