Why do Romeo's parents not ask Romeo directly why he is sad?

English
1 answer:
poizon [28]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Romeo's relationship with his parents is somewhat typical. Romeo's mother and father seem to care about his well-being, but Romeo is a teenage boy who keeps secrets; the family is caring but distant. Romeo's father knows Romeo is depressed. He has observed his son's behaviour and is aware that Romeo's condition is serious (he says that Romeo's state may prove "black and portentous" if it can't be remedied). He also has tried to find out what is wrong with Romeo both on his own and with the help of friends, to no avail. So Montague is caring but incapable of bridging the distance between himself and his son, even with assistance. Lady Montague appears even more disconnected than her husband. Again, she cares--she is pleased to hear that Romeo hasn't been fighting--but seems oblivious to the deeper  problems Romeo has. In this, she appears to be even more removed from her son than her husband, for her concern seems misplaced (at least initially), for Romeo is more of a lover than a fighter.

Neither parent functions as a confidant or a guide for Romeo. He shares neither the source of his sorrow nor the source of his joy with them. He does not consider going to them for advice, but instead shares his troubles with the friar and Benvolio, neither of whom give him particularly good counsel.

suter [353]

Explanation:

Hey (cousin name),

Hope you are doing fine. I am extremely thrilled and excited to tell you that we are being taken to a field trip from the school. As the rule permits, I have put your name in the field trip visit along with myself.

The venue for the field trip is Boston’s Freedom Trail. The rich historical background of the city along with wonderful monuments is set to strike deep nerves of the students. The trip is set to be extreme fun in the company of colleagues and dear ones.

We have been told by our mentors that the site holds special importance in the political history of the United States. This would enable us to delve deep in our history and enrich our understanding of our mainland.

It would be useful for both of us in the veracity of information it would provide us. Moreover, the relaxation and joy are the bonus. I am hopeful of you joining me in my field visit. See you soon! Take care

Yours lovingly

XYZ
