Lord Capulet Make A Better Parent In Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet
In act 1 , I would like to argue that Lord Capulet makes a better parent. He’s allowing time for Juliet to pick the man that she wants to marry while Lady Capulet advocates for Juliet to marry Paris, regardless of what Juliet believes or thinks. Also Tybalt told Lord Capulet that Romeo was at the party and because he is a Montague he should be kicked out. However, the lord states “ Let him alone. He bears him like a portly gentleman, and to say the truth, Verona brags of him To be a virtuous and well-governed youth. (1,5,74-77). This quote demonstrates that Lord Capulet is open and willing to allow her daughter to see whomever she desires, versus promoting what the parent believes. On the Flipside, Lady Capulet wants Juliet to marry Paris
