To begin with to the statement made earlier about the claim that the Montague's and Capulet's were responsible for the death of their children. If both families didn’t have an ancient grudge bot4h of the children wouldn’t have died. The both families had an ongoing grudge that didn’t allow them to be married to one family to the other. In document A, “Two Households”, it states in the third line “From ancient grudge break to new mutiny.” Proving that both families had or have a grudge and that made the turn into a war. Making both households have a fight. Finally, if anyone had any contact with the opposing family they will be killed probably making Romeo and Juliet very scared to be together.
The main person to blame is Romeo and Juliet. Because they knew they were not supposed to be seeing each other and if they got caught and people found out they would be dead.

You can tell they had missed each other because Romeo was saying “ How fares my Juliet” DBQ; Romeo, Document E. Also, Juliet was saying “ O comfortable Friar! Where is my lord?” DBQ; Juliet, Document E.

This is clearly exemplified by the following passages. The first example of this behaviour is when Juliet swears her vows to her beloved Romeo on a whim during their first meeting, creating strain and discord within her family. A second example occurs when, Tybalt goes against the word of his Lord, acting rashly on his emotions, holding a grudge towards Romeo, seeking him out and inciting his death. And ultimately, the example of Romeo’s decision to take his life after hearing of Juliet’s “death”, which results in the iconic double suicide that concludes the play.
