A boy who is drawn to the mother figure and alienated from the father figure is a Freudian Oedipus.
Specifically, Sigmund Freud (May 6, 1856 - September 23, 1939) linked this stage in a boy's development to the ancient Greek story of Theban King Oedipus, who kills his father, marries his mother, and therefore becomes both father and half-brother to his own children. Killing the father symbolizes the great emotional and physical distance between son and father. Marrying the mother symbolizes her great emotional and physical appeal as the main information source in the early years of a boy's life.
A healthy outcome is possible when the boy passes into later boyhood and adolescence and the father becomes the role model regarding making one's way through the world, holding down a job and settling into family life. But there also is the possibility of unhealthy outcomes, ranging from symbolic to actual attachments and alienations.

Oedipus was essentially a Greek hero. The Greeks admired the concept of a sound mind in a sound body. Thus Oedipus was intelligent as well as strong. His intelligence was proven in his ability to solve the riddle of the Sphinx. His strength was exemplified in the killing of his own father.The two most basic traits Oedipus showed was intelligence and physical prowess. He was a true Greek hero.We shall just have to forget the Freudian aspects of his character.
Oedipus can be seen as a representation of the ego in Freudian psychology. The ego mediates between the id's primal desires and the superego's moral constraints. Oedipus navigates the complex realities of his fate and identity, making conscious decisions based on reason, which aligns with the function of the ego. His tragic downfall arises from his attempts to assert control over his destiny, reflecting the ego's struggle with external forces.

The Oedipus complex comes from the ancient Greek play Oedipus. Dr. Sigmund Freud named this condition after one of the key meanings in the play. In Oedipus, the main character (oedipus himself) kills his father and marries his mother. The meaning of the Oedipus complex is a boy's natural sexual feelings for his own mother. This is shown at birth and in normal human behavior, is broken up after years of aging. If not, there's a problem-- Oedipus Complex.

The psychologist who didn't practice Freudian psychology.
Freudian is the proper adjective for Freud.
A Freudian topic typically refers to a concept or idea derived from the theories of Sigmund Freud, a renowned psychologist known for his work on the unconscious mind, psychoanalysis, and childhood experiences shaping personality. Some Freudian topics include the Oedipus complex, defense mechanisms, dreams as reflections of unconscious desires, and the role of early childhood experiences in shaping adult behavior.
In Freudian theory, the ego is to reality and rationality as the id is to unconscious and instinctual drives.
