    All throughout the play of Romeo and Juliet‚ there are many underlying themes. One underlying theme I noticed was the theme of the role of a parent. Throughout the play‚ the parents play a huge role‚ though it may not be the best role for our titular characters. There are pretty much two sides to this argument of “what is the role of a parent?” I feel that in the play the parents are there to be almost a nuisance‚ but not intentionally. In real life however‚ parents could also be very influential

Time is used to set
