Romeo And Juliet Disobeying Her Parents

Teen Rebellion is a common theme throughout movies, literature, and song lyrics. Teen rebellion is a normal action through teen years. Teen rebellion is caused by wanting to prove a point and a craving for freedom. During teenage years you always want prove a point weather to an authority figure or even to yourself. Also teens are growing into adults and tend to grave freedom. In Shakespeare's “Romeo and Juliet” both Romeo and Juliet rebel against their families. The two families of Romeo and Juliet are the most bitter enemies and only care for murdering the other family. Romeo of the Montagues and Juliet of the Capulets are now falling in love with each other but know that the war being families will be a complication to their love. Romeo

When Juliet finds out that Tybalt has been killed and Romeo is in exile, for killing Tybalt, Juliet feels both passionate about Romeo and disappointed in both Romeo and herself, which reveal her inner struggle. In Act 3, Juliet’s Nurse comes back with this news that Tybalt is dead and that Romeo is such an awful person for killing him. Juliet fights back at the Nurse, and herself, for speaking bad about Romeo. She claims, ““Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband? Ah, poor my lord, what tongue shall smooth thy name, When I, thy three hours' wife, have mangled it? But wherefore, villain, didst thou kill my cousin? That villain cousin would have killed my husband.” (3.2.99-101). This shows that Juliet is passionate about Romeo, because first of all, she says that she was wrong to say bad things about her husband.

Romeo and Juliet’s lack of parental guidance encourages their disloyalty towards their respective families and their willingness to disregard their identity as a Montague or Capulet, creating a new identity based off of Romeo and Juliet’s relationship for them. Romeo and Juliet both do not receive proper guidance from their respective parents, which causes them to not hold as much importance for their respective families. As a result, Romeo and Juliet begin to disregard and not take pride in their identity as a Montague or Capulet, as Juliet is willing to “no longer be a Capulet” (II.ii.39) for Romeo, while Romeo also considers himself a Capulet after their marriage. Romeo and Juliet start to consider their relationship more important than

Juliet, throughout the play slowly gets more recalcitrant, and eventually defies her father by going against his decision of her marriage to County Paris; which ultimately leads to Lord Capulet becoming infuriated and threaten to both disown and disinherit her: '... "I'll not wed, I cannot love, / I am too young, I pray you pardon me."/…/ Graze where you will you shall not house with me.' (III.v.185-186, 188) Another example is when Juliet tells Romeo: ‘’Deny thy father, and refuse thy name; / … / And I’ll no longer be a Capulet.’’ (II.ii.34, 36) to disobey his father and refuse his name as a Montague, but if he does not, then she herself would forsake her own name as a Capulet, this in turn shows us how far she is willing to defy her parents authority. Therefore, it is obvious that throughout Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, she slowly, but surely becomes more defiant, in the end she eventually goes against her parents authority and

At first, quick-witted Juliet manages to fool her parents with subtle punning. She deceives them into thinking that she is complying with their wishes when, in actual fact, Juliet is defying them in an unobvious manner. Such an example is when Lady Capulet enters Juliet’s chamber, questioning the reason for her sorrow and tears. Juliet answers, “Indeed I shall be satisfied/ With Romeo till I behold him – dead -/ Is my poor heart so for a kinsman vexed.” (III.v.97-99) This disobedience and disloyalty towards her parents escalates when her father gives her instructions to wed Paris. At this point, Juliet cannot stand her outrage and displays outright disobedience, instantly retorting “He shall not make me there a joyful bride!” (III.v.21) She then seeks help from Friar Lawrence, begging him to help her avoid marrying Paris. “And I will do it without fear or doubt,/ To live an unstained wife to my sweet love.” (IV.i.89-90) As the story plays out, Juliet learns to be bolder and more defiant towards her parents, showing that she is a strong individual with her own views and mindsets. She even resorts to the most desperate of measures in order to go against her parents’

Juliet’s parents are partly to blame for the deaths of Romeo and their daughter. Lady Capulet seemed to be an extremely strict and pushy mother. “Do as thou wilt, for I have done with thee.” She and her husband should have paid more attention to Juliet’s wishes and should not have been so

Welcome to Verona, a town where two rival families and their accomplices make terrible decisions. For one, telling a child to get married at thirteen years old is a bad parenting decision on its own. In “Romeo and Juliet,” people got married and had kids at an extremely young age. Being so young, people of those ages tend to not make rational decisions; however, even the adults in the tragedy couldn’t wisely make decisions. Capulet forcing Juliet to marry Paris caused Juliet stress and made it harder for Romeo and Juliet to be together.

William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet focus on the two young lovers, Romeo and Juliet, who fall in love and die within a span of three days. Romeo and Juliet illustrate how the love brings them together to over power the control of their relationship. The moment that Romeo and Juliet declare their love for one another, they try to keep their love a secret since they are the children of the feuding families, the Montagues and the Capulets. Initially their families would be outraged against their relationship that Romeo and Juliet propose to hide the truth of their love. Once Romeo and Juliet reveal to the Nurse and Friar Lawrence their plans to marry, their relationship is nothing but a risk of problems. Romeo is unafraid to show his love that he teases Tybalt teasing him about falling in love with Juliet, although not explicitly. However, the deaths of Mercutio and Tybalt, occur when Romeo and Juliet take actions to protect themselves, but they are not however, protected. Juliet protects her relationship by committing a false death only for Romeo to believe it as true. As a result, the act to protect Romeo and Juliet’s relationship a secret are examples of the failed actions both Romeo and Juliet try to prevent; however, it is not ‘fate’ that control their lives and deaths.

“There are no rewards or punishments---only consequences”, this was said by writer, professor, and priest William Ralph Inge. Romeo and Juliet has great lessons everyone can learn from. The two main characters seem to be a little lost in their love for each other in this long twisted play where nothing seems to go right. The story shows that secrets lead to more problems and that lying just brings more trouble to a person. William Shakespeare wrote this play, named The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, which tells of a love story between Romeo and Juliet and how it affected family, friends, and enemies.

Many readers see Romeo and Juliet as a narrative of star-crossed lovers, a dramatic tale of lovers destined for affliction. However, upon closer examination, his play may have a moral even Shakespeare himself could not have foreseen. Parenting is risky business, and can lead a child’s demise if done badly. While this is exemplified in Romeo and Juliet, in today’s society many people are growing interest in this morbid topic. It has come to light in recent years that there is a new breed of parents. “Helicopter Parents,” named for their constant hovering over their children, are steadily becoming the norm. These parents seem to have no self control when it comes to their influence within

Juliet's parents over protect her which drives her to madness. Juliet’s life is strongly controlled by her parents. After Juliet and Romeo’s death, Friar Laurence explains to the crowd that, “Oh, in this love, you love your child so ill.” The importance of this passage is shown throughout the story. The Capulet family is forcing their beloved daughter to marry Paris, whom Juliet is not interested in. This push from her parents made Juliet anger. Juliet would rather marry the “villain” Romeo. These star-crossed lovers are in a relationship that cannot be broken. Juliet poisons herself so she will not have

In spite of Lady Capulet and Lord Capulet wishing the best for their daughter, they make extreme life choices for Juliet against her will. As when Lady Capulet insists that Juliet marries Paris,” Marry my child, early next Thursday morn” (Act 3 Scene 5 Line 113). It is important to realize Juliet does not wish to marry Paris since she has already said her vows to another, Romeo. So, since Lady Capulet will not listen to Juliet’s declination, Juliet looks to father for support. Alternatively, Lord Capulet threatens to disown Juliet,” Graze where you will, you shall not house with me” (Act 3 Scene 5 Line190). Lord Capulet’s action demoralizes Juliet leaving her with no one to

Shakespeare does this by noting how Romeo and Juliet do not actually love each other. This is represented by Romeo and Juliets actions and rash decision making. Their decisions are very impulsive and rushed. As a result, it impacted them negatively in the future and as well as their relationship. Romeo and Juliet’s love for each other is not actually how love really is. They’ve mistakenly confused lust for love.
