Lessing's childhood involved going out into nature and enjoying it as best as she could until her mother would tell her to stop and be a proper woman. Lessing lived after World War I from which his father suffered injuries that prevented him from walking again.<span />
Lessing's childhood experiences were able to shape Doris Lessing's storytelling in numerous ways. The various homes and countries she moved to and grew up in showed her how women in her time were treated and how they were expected to behave. She notes herself that after women married and had children, their lives seemed to come to a full stop. Because of this realization, Doris was inspired to write many outstanding stories that were a revolutionary new point of view in a time where women were treated with inequity. The strict home and religious convent she was raised in also had an impact on her writing. It was a way for her to get her thoughts and feelings out about her own life and the lives of other women.
I think Benvolio is concerned because when hes speaking to Montague he says he had seen how depressed Romeo was but he didn't want to go after him because he wanted to be alone but he reassured Montague that he would go and check on romeo if he was OK....<span />
