"What I Think About Freud And Little Hans"

After reading the case study of "little Hans" I was very im pressed and amazed of how Freud came up with those interpretations. And how he linked Hans sexual desires with his mother to the phobia of white horses. I can only imagine of the critisim Freud got from making this case study at that time period. He made very bold and statements about how children think and feel about their mothers at that age. His ideas were very much against what the society believed. I think that Hans would have naturally lose his phobia with horses as he grew up and understood the world better. Especially understanding that girls have no "widdlers" and where baby's actually come from. He would also realize that having sexual desires for his own mother and is very wrong and abnormal and as he would grow up would understand it will most probably repress his feelings and might cause problems later on in his life.
