Question 23

Sebastian is a 3-year-old boy at a nursery. His key worker notices that whenever snacks are served, Sebastian cannot wait for his turn. He immediately grabs food from other children's plates, and if a staff member intervenes and asks him to wait, he screams, kicks, and tries to hit them.

Describe how Freud's psychodynamic theory would explain Sebastian's aggressive and impulsive behaviour.
