Juliet interacts with her parents more than Romeo does with his. I’m sure their parents are confused on why they don’t spend time with them when they're parents. Through the play Romeo and his parents interact, therefore we see how his parents feel about him. Lady and Lord Montague ask Benvolio why Romeo has acted so depressed.

This shows that they are concerned about Romeo, But they are concerned about him from a distance, they get Benvolio to see what's wrong with Romeo because they believe that Romeo would not come to them.

These are some of the same things that teens today do, they talk themselves out of a tough situation by misleading the person they're talking to into believing something that isn’t true. The way teens talk to their parents, Juliet and Romeo talk to their parents the same way because there can be many interpretations of what is being said. Some of the decisions they make are some of the same mistakes teens make not thinking things through all the way. When Tybalt killed Mercutio Romeo ran after seeking revenge he wasn’t thinking about the consequences of the action he was committing.
Romeo ended up killing Tybalt, and then he was banished after that. This action forced Romeo to have to leave his beloved Juliet. Teens today do the same things that Romeo and Juliet do, not thinking it all the way through and then have to face the consequences. Romeo and Juliet also care about their pride which is what makes them commit the acts that they do. Because if they get challenged to something their not going back down because if they do the challenge their pride would go

The Relationship Between Parents And Children In William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet The tragedy of 'Romeo and Juliet' is the result of feuding between two noble families in Verona/Italy. Romeo was born into the Montague household, who were the more controlled, quieter family. They did not 'enjoy' the fights therefore tried to avoid the feuds.
Parenting is an ancient task that, till this present century, has not yet been perfected. It is a challenge that many mothers and fathers do well in while others unquestionably fail in. In Romeo and Juliet, both sets of parents are completely unaware of their children's thoughts, desires, and intentions. Not only is there a lack of communication between the parents and their children, but the parents also seem to have no interest in making an effort to know or understand their children. Therefore, as a result of their neglectful parenting , the classic love story ends in the suicidal deaths of both Romeo and Juliet, a tragedy that could have been avoided had their parents practiced better parenting skills such as interest, and communication or understanding.

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.
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
Teenagers brains aren’t fully developed during their teenage years, and this partially explains why Romeo made juvenile and naive decisions throughout Romeo and Juliet. In an article by David Dobbs, he states, “This process of maturation, once thought to be largely finished by elementary school, continues throughout adolescence.” This quote is relevant because it may have a say in the explanation of Romeo’s irrational decisions that I am about to discuss disregarding his fate. For example, in Act 3 Scene 1, Romeo states, “Now Tybalt, take the villain back again, either Thou, or both must go with him.” Romeo seeks revenge on Tybalt after Tybalt killed Mercutio.
Juliet was brought up to dislike the Montagues without proper reason why. She cannot love Romeo, for his name is the enemy. Juliet brings awareness to this subject as she states, “My only love sprung from my only hate! . . . Prodigious birth of love it is to me that I must love a loathed enemy” (Shakespeare 84). Juliet knows she is not to love or be in contact with a Montague. She still continues to brawl for Romeo, even when she knows her parents will be furious if they found out. Had there not been a feud, there would be no need for Romeo and Juliet to hide their love. In the end of the book the two families resolve their differences, however it is still too late to save the young lovers. As the parents of both kids say, “For I will ray* her statue in pure gold . . . As rich shall Romeo’s by his lady’s lie, poor sacrifices of our enmity!” (Shakespeare 302). This quote brings about that Romeo and Juliet’s parents accept responsibility, as they prove the feud is the reason why their kids are dead. Overall, as Juliet’s parents believe holding a feud wouldn’t resolve in any trouble, they are held accountable for Romeo and Juliet’s

Romeo and Juliet are mostly impacted by outside influences to get to the point where the tragedy ends. They make rash decisions as it is, and even more so with the pressures and influences they are put up against. Outside influences and pressures impact actions and decisions made by everyone, not just these two.
In fact, seeing Romeo causes Juliet to take his dagger and kill herself. Teens are going through a rough time resulting in impulsive decision
"Will you speak well of him that killed your cousin?” “Shall I speak ill of him that is my husband?”(3:2:104-106). Juliet had described Romeo as a beautiful demon who has deceived her, only a few dialogues ago and now she is defending him. However, Juliet did not start speaking on his behalf until her Nurse spoke against him. Teenagers are programed to get there way even if they have know idea what they want, which is exactly
Since reading has been around, it has been used to educate. Romeo and Juliet has been around for what seems as long as literature itself, and is still used to teach today.Written in the 1590’s, the tragic story of Romeo and Juliet is about the untimely death of two star crossed lovers, despite their feuding families. Throughout reading, it becomes clear that the attitudes of the Montagues and Capulets, Friar Lawrence and the Nurse fulfilling parental roles, and Juliet’s forced marriage caused the shocking deaths of the pair. If the parents of the two young lovers could have looked past their differences and let their children decide who to love, they could have spared themselves the heartbreak of losing their children.
