Answer to Question 1

Earlier attachments were narcissistic (child was interested only in her or his own sexual pleasure); other people were of interest only if they furthered child's own pleasure. In the genital stage, a desire to share mutual sexual gratification with someone else develops, and the individual becomes capable of loving others, not only for selfish reasons, but also for altruistic reasons.
