Final Answer : B, Explanation :  When Freud referred to the sexual drive of babies and young children, he was referring to the fact that they focus on their bodies to give them physical pleasure, rather than any sexual or romantic attraction or orientation. This concept is known as the pleasure principle and is a central idea in Freud's psychoanalytic theory. It does not involve the establishment of sexual orientation from birth or the need for explicit sexual morality education from a very early age.
