Latency

Explanation:

The latency phase is a term used by Freud to understand an interval in the development of child sexuality, usually identified between six and ten years of age. This period includes a decrease in what can be called sexual activity. Chronologically, this period is approximately between six and ten years of age. The beginning of this period is more tense and conflicting than its completion since the child will gradually interact better with the world around him.
