Describe Freud's concept of socialization
What will be an ideal response?
For Freud the self develops out of the processes of socialization, primarily in the family, whereby the infant is gradually forced to control its bodily urges and channel them into socially acceptable forms of behavior. In the struggle between the infant and the parents, major personality traits are laid down that change little throughout life. The conflict is most severe between the child and the same-sex parent. This parent serves as a strong behavioral model and is the most powerful socializing influence on the child.
