Shakespeare understood that with young love came rebellion, (which upon Juliet’s marriage to Paris being advanced ahead of time), made the lovers more determined to defy their scorning families and the chain of being. Had their families ceased their feud and with time, let their children get to personally know each other, their young love might’ve extended into true love. Shakespeare presents the complexities and faults with young love in the play with rebellion and time as catalysts in their downfall, suggesting a negative view of the human nature.

In the Shakespearean play “Romeo and Juliet”, the parents of adolescent children often made choices for their children such as where they were to be at a certain time and how they were to dress for a certain party. One of the most unusual decisions made for the children, according to our time, was the decision of courting and marriage. Parents would choose who the child was to marry and when the wedding would be. Many people of the present day in age believe that children should be able to choose whoever they want to be with for the rest of their lives. Other parents try to shelter their children from the world and restrict them from dating certain people. Due to recent brain studies, real life examples, and examples from “Romeo and Juliet”, parents should be able to exclude certain people from dating their child.

Romeo and Juliet versus the Teenage Brain The play “Romeo and Juliet” by William Shakespeare is a play about two “Star-crossed lovers” from different sides of two feuding households. Throughout the play, the main characters Romeo and Juliet, make a series of irrational, un thought out, and compulsive decisions. In Fact, most of the play actually revolves around these two characters poor choices. However, today's scientists say that decisions like these are actually a normal part of the average teenage brain.

Romeo and Juliet In Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, many would argue that the characters grow up too fast. This relates to our world today where teenagers do things in order to act more grown up then they really are. Peer pressure from friends and classmates can lead teenagers to make decisions in order to make them look “cool” and “grown-up”, which are basically synonyms nowadays. The older generations always tell kids to enjoy being young while it last because once it’s over, it’s over, and you can never get those moments back.

In Romeo and Juliet youth and age are contrasted, though not through age; but rather through the adults and the juveniles. Shakespeare reveals the incompetence of both adults and adolescents through the eyes of the children. By using impulsive, irrational, and regardless characters, Shakespeare makes his point so. When children become adults and adults become children, the amount of the troubles bound to occur are limitless. Youth in Romeo and Juliet are portrayed through young characters: Romeo, Juliet, Benvolio, and Mercutio.

Shakespeare was the first to describe the, “terrifying beauty of the adolescent so early in its development, and so definitively and so thoroughly…”, according to Stephen Marche. Romeo and Juliet is the perfect example of adolescents and is one of the biggest hits of all time. The play’s background consists of a 20 year family feud between Romeo’s family, the Montagues, and Juliet's family, the Capulets. Romeo is heartbroken because the “love of his life”, Rosaline, doesn't love him.

Romeo and Juliet had a growth in maturity over the course of the story. In the beginning, they both acted as if they had no decisions, and as if they had to live with what everyone else around them felt was best. As the story progressed, so did their characters. When they met, their personalities and reactions to their problems began to evolve.

Teen Rebellion is one of the most popular trends on these days. Also there are too many movies and books about it, like “Romeo & Juliet” by William Shakespeare. This book(play) can also be compare to the movie “Titanic” for many reasons. The reasons why they are kind of identical are that both couples were teens and love each other against others. Also because at the end someone dies because of that love.

Youth and Shakespeare In The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, William Shakespeare uses many themes to convey children’s need for adult approval and admiration.

This play called Romeo and Juliet written by William Shakespeare, is about the two star crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding families and one of the most popular tragedies ever written by Shakespeare. I believe William Shakespeare message to youth/teenagers is to explain the way teenagers are unreasonable and the way they make their gratuitous risks for their loved ones. They don't think of the actions they are doing because they are so in love. The are optimistic and believe there are always happy endings. Most teenagers are not cautious about their choices they make because they end up serving consequences for their actions they made all for a girl.

Although everyone was once a teenager, teens are a popular victim of mockery in literature. In his book Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare, who dates back to the 1500’s, pokes fun at the lack of responsibility that teenagers possess. Right of the bat, Shakespeare begins to poke fun at the star crossed lovers when they say, “O, wilt thou leave me so unsatisfied?/What satisfaction canst thou have tonight?/Th’ exchange of thy love’s faithful vow for mine” (Shakespeare 2.2 125-127). They’ve literally only known eachother for an hour and are wanting to get married immediately! Shakespeare is trying to capitalize on the belief that teenagers don’t
