Answer to Question 1

Answer: Freud believed that dreams are the royal road to understanding the unconscious, a place where the unconscious wishes express themselves in disguised form. Interpreting what dreams mean is the key, and Freud wrote a book called The Interpretation of Dreams. He felt that dreams could not be understood from the content on the surface, but that one had to look for hidden meaning.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Some children get a sense of pleasure from holding their bowels and will refuse to go, even when asked by a parent. This child may grow up to have an anal-retentive personality focused on neatness and order. Some children have the opposite problem and will gain pleasure from releasing their bowels. They may grow up to have an anal-expulsive personality and be sloppy and disorganized.
