I think Lord and Lady Capulet got what they deserve when Juliet “died”. Neither of them spent time with her so they didn’t make a family bond so the family was distant. The nurse knew more things about Juliet than Lord or Lady Capulet. Lord Capulet also forced Juliet to marry Paris when she didn’t want to and threatened her to do it or else he would disown her. Lines 160-164 “Hang Thee‚ young baggage! Disobedient wretch! I tell thee what. Get to thee church o’ Thursday Or never look me in the face”

In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet‚ Juliet’s cousin Tybalt is portrayed as an aggressive character who despises all who belongs to the House of Montague. Both arrogant and hotheaded‚ Tybalt is proud of being a Capulet‚ and does not possess an ounce of countenance at the mere mention of the name Montague. Tybalt’s challenge to Romeo poses as the greater threat to the “well-being” of Romeo and Juliet’s relationship in comparison to Count Paris’s eagerness to marry Juliet in that his distaste

two love birds from disputing families. Lord Capulet wants to give the impression of a man with much honor and peace; however when away from the public‚ Capulet is a fairly complicated individual.
