“Not long ago, scientists thought the human brain was fully mature long before the teen years. While research shows that one’s brain reaches its maximum size between ages 12 and 14 (depending on whether you are a girl or a boy), it also shows that brain development is far from complete. Regions of the brain continue to mature all the way through a person’s early 20s,” (Scholastic 2). In William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Juliet was only thirteen years old. Being that age, her parents wanted her to marry young, but since Juliet was only thirteen, she would not have been able to think if she really wanted to do this. Her parents forced her to marriage, but she left just in time. Romeo, only a few years older than Juliet was not directed

They loved each other and even though their parents wanted them to be separate, they thought they could sneak away together. Since they did not plan the situation before time, they both died because of their family’s parenting. Parents should find a good balance between not being involved in a child’s life and being too involved in their life.
In the first place, overprotective parents make their children feel like they cannot trust anyone. “Overprotective parents send the message that their children cannot handle life’s challenges on their own. This can lead to a lack of self-confidence in these children,” (Hewitt 1). Overprotective parenting makes a child feel like they are stuck where they cannot escape. The child feels like they cannot trust anyone or anything. They are trapped.

Even though her parents care about her, they do not agnolige her feelings. She did not agree to gettiong married yet, but her dad already planned who and when they will have the ceremony. Under parenting makes the child feel like they are not worth anything and they do not know how to live well. Without having a role model to help the child grow, they have to figure out how to live by themselves at a young age. “...the percentage of poor children in America is greater today than it was thirty years ago. One in six children lives below the poverty line,” (Acocella 1). When a parent does not take care of their child enough, they may sneak away and do things that are bad for themselves or others. Also, this child may be put into a financial crisis and have to quit school just so they can try to support themselves. The Capulets and Montagues, Romeo’s and Juliet’s families, do not notice that they are sneaking out to be together. They do not know that Juliet and Romeo love each other because they are not paying enough attention to their children. If a parent it not nurturing the child as they should, the child can be damaged for the rest of their life. They cannot do things without being put down because they
