Answer:

An oral fixation

Explanation:

An oral fixation is a fixation that manifests itself as an obsession with stimulating the mouth. This was one of the obssessions described by Sigmund Freud. Infants are all in an oral stage. However, when this stage is not resolved successfully, the infants may carry issues into their later lives. This is most likely the fixation that Fred suffers from.
