Juliets parents are mostly to blame for the whole outcome of the play. Juliet was only thirteen, she had no moral support from her parents and the way the lord and Lady Capulet treated her was terrible. They set her up with Paris, and tried to force her to be with him. Even though arranged marriages back then were normal, Juliet was only thirteen and was not ready or prepared for this next step in life.. Until she met Romeo. But, even though her parents were gentle and calm about it all at the beginning "Oh, Juliet, just see if you can like him at the party tonight, ok sweetheart?, this all changed after her cousin died and she was upset/grieving. Not long after all this occurred they decided her grief is excessive and tried to force her to
middle of paper ... ... Again, we see that things, which appear less direct, may have actually contributed more to the situation. & nbsp; It does take two to tango. Juliet also promoted the relationship, and was too stubborn to listen to her parents' wishes. It was originally Juliet's idea for the two to wed. & nbsp; "If thy bent of love be honourable, thy purpose marriage, send me word tomorrow by one that I'll procure to come to thee, where and what time thou wilt perform the rites, and all thy fortunes at thy foot I'll lay." & nbsp; Juliet also could have avoided disaster had she respected her parents a bit more.
With Mercutio’s last moments he cursed the houses Capulet and Montague for his death and events that happen during the course of the play. Could this very well be a fair assumption, with the toxic behavior coming from the Capulets and the passive behavior from the Montagues, would it be any wonder that the adults of the story are the true cause for all the troubles that befall Romeo, Juliet and company?
Juliet, like Romeo shouldn't have rushed into marrying each other, and Juliet said, "It was too rash, too unadvis'd, too sudden. " But she never did anything about this. She went along with the marriage that resulted in death. Also Juliet was already engaged to marry Paris at the time, and she was happy with that and happy with her parents, she shouldn't have disobeyed them, then their love for each other would never have happened. Tybalt is another character that could be to blame.

It may be difficult to truly determine who is to blame for the tragedy, because their lives had been influenced, criticized, and controlled by many figures. Among the most important characters, Friar Lawrence enables the forbidden marriage of the two lovers and devises a plan to ensure that they end up together. On the other hand, Lord and Lady Capulet feed into the rivalry between the two families and refuse to listen to their daughter’s request, ultimately driving Juliet to fake her own death.
Although there are many factors to the tragedy of William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, some are greater than others. The major contributor to the downfall of these lovers was Capulet, Juliet's own father.

Shakespeare has been know for many plays but one of his famous one is “Romeo and Juliet” Which has two teens from rivalling families who fell in love with each other but through misunderstandings and not well thought out plans by their mentors led to both Romeo and Juliet’s death by suicide. There were many ways that these “Star-crossed lovers” could avoided their fate with more thought out ideas and bring more people into their plans but untimely they died from plans from their mentors.

Youth and family play a big role in this tragic story. "Shakespeare delineates the hold of the patriarchal family on its children" (Kahn 18). This statement is true both then and now. Parents and elders will always have a hold on the children, but only to a certain extent. The two "noble" families of the play feel control and protection over both Juliet and Romeo; yet in the end, the only effect they have on the two lovers is that they have pushed them to the drastic measure of self-slaughter.
Throughout time, there have been many tragedies cause by romance. For example, the play Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, is known for its romantic tragedy between two star-crossed lovers. With all the deaths, who is truly to blame for Romeo and Juliet's deaths? Friar Laurence is most to blame for many obvious, yet overlooked reasons.
The most significant reason that Juliet's parents were to blame is because they were so self-centered and didn't care for anyone but themselves. For example, in the beginning of the play, the Capulets throw a Masquerade party but made it very prominent that only people who were from the Montagues couldn’t go. This shows that the Capulets never gave Romeo and Juliet a fair chance . To add on, Lord Capulet is more interested in forcing Juliet marrying sooner and better rather than having Juliet follow what makes her happy. This shows that Lord Capulet is self centered because he only cares about what he wants and not what anybody else wants and if anyone does not follow what he wants then it doesn't go well until they end up doing what he wants.
Juliet's parents’ were the ones to blame for Romeo & Juliet's deaths’. The reason being, that, Juliet's parents pushed Juliet into doing something against her will, which led to a chain of events causing suicide. Juliet's parents should have realized something was extremely wrong when Juliet, a 14 year old girl, didn’t wish to marry an 18 year old guy she didn’t like at all. Forcing Juliet to do this wasn’t right, or just at all, and they should have looked at things from her perspective and took her feelings into consideration. It is Juliet that’s going to end up with the guy forever.
Romeo and Juliet is set in an Italian city named Verona. Romeo is the son of of Montague, a powerful family patriarch, and Juliet is the daughter of Capulet, another powerful patriarch. There’s one problem with this. Capulet and Montague hate each other. There’s another problem. The story was set in a time where men were thought of as superior to women. It was not unusual for a father to marry his daughter to another man just for the political status. This makes it impossible for Romeo to marry Juliet peacefully. In today’s world, Capulet’s actions would not be regarded as good parenting, so that is why, in our eyes, Capulet seems like a bad father, but there is more to his bad side. He tried to marry Juliet off to a kinsman of the prince just for the political status, but his bad parenting also harmed Juliet in another way. He let his anger get the best of him in most cases, and by doing this, it made Juliet keep secret from him. So, by being stubborn, self-absorbed, and hot-tempered, he influenced Romeo and Juliet to kill themselves.
Everyone has a purpose in life, although it may take time to realize what it may be. One must be careful with the interactions we have with each other, because they can be positive or negative.
