Romeo and Juliet are still children, as stated by the drama. And children are generally incapable of viewing things from the perspectives of others.

Similarly, Romeo and Juliet not only shows the development of love, but the development of immaturity that leads to the story being tragic. Often humans develop to become mature, but the totalness of immaturity in this story, makes the process go backwards. From Romeo and Juliet’s fast evolving relationship to the hate between the two family’s, the ignorance of thought in different characters is portrayed well in the story. Therefore, the theme of this sad story is to think more diligently and reasonably before taking action, and overall grow from the past.
First, Romeo acts on how he’s feeling at that moment. Then, Juliet is so self-conscious that she threatens to kill herself over a guy she barely knows and just met.

The majority of people regard adolescence as a tumultuous time, so it comes as no surprise that it is the focus of many literary works. Few, however, match the grandness of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. In the timeless tale, two “star-crossed lovers” meet their demise.

Teenage rebellion in Romeo and Juliet Almost everyone in the world wants to someday have children. Children are cute and people want to start a family. The idea of kids sounds great until you think of one thing, dealing with the teenage years. The teenage years are when the sweet, little child turns into the stubborn, little teenager who doesn’t listen, argues with everything and tries to do whatever they want, whenever they want.
