Child Development: The Anal Phase
The anal stage of motivational development is
characterized by the child's central area of bodily
concern in the rectum. Bowel movements become a source
of pleasure to the child. He may defecate often to
achieve this pleasure. This, however, would bring him
into conflict with his parents. The conflict leads the
child to develop an ego. He comes to realize that he
cannot always do what he wants when he wants. He
learns that there are certain times when it it
appropriate to expel waste and other times when it is
inappropriate. He gradually comes to understand his
mother's wishes and abides by them.
