Teenagers In Romeo And Juliet

Their love had brought out things they never felt before. Their emotions have caused them to feel that everyone in their family is one and their families are stupid for being enemies. When Romeo was banished from their town, Juliet was in sorrow. She took a potion to pretend to be dead without even caring for what the consequences will be. “Oh, if I wake, shall I not be distraught,/ Environèd with all these hideous fears,/ And madly play with my forefather’s joints,/ And pluck the mangled Tybalt from his shroud,/ And, in this rage, with some great kinsman’s bone,/ As with a club, dash out my desperate brains?/ Oh, look! Methinks I see my cousin’s ghost/ Seeking out Romeo, that did spit his body/ Upon a rapier’s point. Stay, Tybalt, stay!/ Romeo, Romeo, Romeo! Here’s drink. I drink to thee.” (4.3.50-59) When Juliet was saying this she was scared to what was going to happen but she did it anyways so that she can be with Romeo again. Juliet is in deep love that she does not care what her parents will think knowing that she was dead as well as the rest of her family. As this happened and her fake funeral had occurred, Romeo came back to town not knowing that Juliet faked her death. “From this world-wearied flesh. Eyes, look your last. Arms, take your last embrace. And, lips, O you/The doors of breath, seal with a righteous kiss/ A dateless bargain to engrossing death./ Come, bitter conduct, come, unsavoury guide./ Thou desperate pilot, now at once run on/ The dashing rocks thy seasick, weary bark./ Here’s to my love! (drinks the poison) O true apothecary,/ Thy drugs are quick. Thus with a kiss I die.” (5.3.121-131) Romeo killed himself so that he can be with Juliet forever. He did not know about the plan. He did not know it was a setup so the Romeo and Juliet can run away. When Juliet woke up and saw Romeo dead she did the same thing. They might be young minds but they believe that they were true love. Juliet

If you know William Shakespeare you know the play “ The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet”, a tragic story that proves that love makes teens do crazy things. I have found evidence that teens make lots of risky discussions. Parents also affect the way teens act based on how they treat the kids. This story has many people wondering if they treat their kids bad how will the outcome turn out.

Many teenagers make bad decisions, and act in a way most adult would say is unintelligent. Romeo and Juliet was a story about two feuding families with the same wealth living in Verona. After a big fight Prince Escalus tells them that if there is another fight they will be killed.  Later that night Romeo meets Juliet at her father’s party and they both fall in love, after the party Romeo talks with Juliet about getting married and she agrees to have the wedding the very next day. After the wedding the two families get into another fight. Due to the fight Mercutio and Tybalt gets killed. Romeo who was also fighting was sentenced to banishment even

Juliet's parents were not caring for their family. They only cared about themselves and did not take proper care of their daughter, as a result of their daughter’s death. They would ignore her at times except when they were in front of the guests. Additionally, Lady Capulet thought that Juliet grieving over her cousin’s death was foolish and made her look stupid, “Evermore weeping for your cousin’s death? What, wilt thou wash him from his grave with tears? An if thou couldst, thou couldst not make him live. Therefore, have done. Some grief shows much of love, But much of grief shows still some want of wit.” (Shakespeare.3.5.69-74). Juliet's parents were the root of Juliet's death, because of how uncaring and disregarding they were of Juliet.

It is while growing up that children and teens are most vulnerable. Because they lack life experience, foresight, and the ability to think clearly, young people often make decisions that are unwise and even downright harmful to them or others. This lack of maturity and its consequences is demonstrated in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, where teens’ poor decisions lead to the deaths of many. The play’s tragic end is not the result of deliberate malicious actions, but rather the consequence of the emotional, untamed impulsivity of the play’s younger characters. In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the reader experiences how the impulsive nature of the youth results in them making poor decisions that can end in tragedy.

Romeo and Juliet by Shakespeare has many conflicts concerning the adults and children of the play. The fault of the numerous conflicts throughout Romeo and Juliet is clearly to blame of the parents and adult figures in the play, clearly shown through the adults forcing the children into unideal circumstances, and the adults attempting to make the problems that were created better. The children although histrionic, were prompted towards bad decisions and convinced towards erroneous plans.

Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about two star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding families. Both Romeo and Juliet are young and sprightly teenagers, Romeo being 15-16 and Juliet with the age of 13. They are teens that make impulsive decisions without thinking about the consequences. David Dobbs the author of the article “Beautiful Brains” explains why teenagers act the way they do throughout scientific research and studies. This article helps to understand Romeos and Juliets actions which led to their deaths.

Lady Capulet enters Juliet 's room and thinks that she’s still crying over Tybalt’s death, but Juliet tries to explain that she’s actually grieving over Romeo’s exile in contradictory words. Juliet says, “Indeed, I never shall be satisfied With Romeo, till I behold him—dead— Is my poor heart for a kinsman vexed. Madam, if you could find out but a man To bear a poison, I would temper it, That Romeo should, upon receipt thereof, Soon sleep in quiet. Oh, how my heart abhors hearing him named, and cannot come to him. To wreak the love I bore my cousin Upon his body that slaughtered him!” (III.v.93-102). In the quote, Juliet says one thing while her mother hears another showing even parents and children sometimes don 't understand each other. Romeo is in Friar Lawrence’s cell after the prince had banished him. He draws his sword to kill himself thinking he had cause Juliet grief but Friar stops him and says, “Hast thou slain Tybalt? wilt thou slay thyself? And slay thy lady, too that lives in thee, By doing damnèd hate upon thyself” (III.iii.17-18). From Romeo 's viewpoint the Friar is unable to understand his grief and for the Friar, Romeo is being away to overdramatic. All of the evidence shows the difficult relationships between parents and children.

Derived from the potent lessons that one should learn throughout their childhood and adolescence from parental figures is the concept of a moral compass; when one lacks this sense of guidance it can dramatically affect their ability to form a sound sense of judgment which could expose them to unfavourable consequences. In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, the theme that when young people face a lack of parental guidance the effects can be detrimental to their futures is demonstrated comprehensively. The first reason for the tragic outcome of the play can be traced back to the selfishness of several supporting characters that bear significant roles in the coming of age of both Romeo

Relationships between teenagers and their parents are rarely boring. Since teenagers begin to think and act independently, conflict arises between them more frequently. This is not just a modern occurrence; in William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, Juliet and her parents have very different points of view. In the play, she marries a man who is a member of a rival family without discussing it with her parents, which eventually leads to her demise because of the conflict that arises. She does not have much interaction with her parents throughout the play, but the miniscule amount shows the differing of opinions immensely. Juliet’s limited interactions with her parents in the play show that she has a rebellious relationship

Before being introduced to the contents of the play, Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, understanding of the argument Shakespeare was attempting to convey, is that adolescents are impulsive and cannot make decisions themselves; and if they did, they would be subject to consequences that could ultimately cost them their lives. However, after reading Juliet’s parts, I was able to see that Shakespeare wasn’t arguing such at all. Instead I saw that Shakespeare was asking a question of who is mature, as opposed to stating that children are immature. So, as a reader, my original perspective of maturity between youth and adults within the play was altered because of Juliet’s usage of measurements and quantitative

Teens in the stage of growing up needs the trust and support from their family and friends to be able to survive in this world. Most teens are like puppets who become the person that their parents want them to be, but as they mature into adults, they have their own desires and ways of thinking, which enable them to break free from the puppet control and become who they really are. In the play Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, the playwright used the Nurse, Lord Capulet, and Friar Lawrence to show how taming the wills of the teens and forcing their wishes upon them could turn the play Romeo and Juliet into a tragic love story.

Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy that involves young lovers, their “untimely death,” and a feud between their two families. The Capulets and the Montagues war against each other. The feud continues to escalate and provides the background for the story of these “two star-crossed lovers.” This literary masterpiece is still relevant today since it involves parental ambition, family fighting, and young love.

In the tragic romance, Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare displays an example of how teenage love can embrace the feelings of the young but also cause destruction, not only in their lives but also the people’s lives around them. This story shows how others opinions and thoughts can affect the people close to them. But who is responsible for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet? The death of these star crossed lovers was not only the teenagers fault but also their family and friends such as, their parents, Friar Lawrence, and the nurse.
