Romeo and Juliet Discussion 5: Conflict and Temper

A quick temper can lead to trouble. Does a temper like that come from a person’s environment, or is it inherent?

Are fights often the result of someone acting too quickly, or are most conflicts slow to ignite?

Relate the ideas you explore to Romeo and Juliet.

Romeo and Juliet Discussion 4: Parents

Thank you for contributing! Please elaborate on your topic so we get a sense of what you really mean.

Do you believe that most parents truly love their children, but do not fully understand them (their thoughts, moods, feelings, etc.)?

Do you think they mean well, but because they don’t understand, they sometimes end up saying or doing the wrong thing?

Can there be serious consequences?
