Oedipus complex is that feeling of attraction a son has towards his mother. This usually takes place between the ages of four to seven. And then slowly begins to fade away once they reach the age of nine.
Some lads, at this age also suffer from the fear where they feel that when their father will find out about their attraction for their mothers, they will be severely punished.
Ancient Greek mythology believed that Oedipus attacked his father's kingdom, then slaughtered him and finally married his mother. On realizing of his crimes he pulled his eyes out in order to repent.
Thus Freud also concluded to call the child's attraction to his mother the Oedipus complex. However some still disagree with this hypothesis and it thus Oedipus complex has its share of criticisms boy
