2 PARAGRAPHS!!

I believe that her action led to Juliet’s death. May be it started as the disappointment that Juliet received from whom she trusted and relied on the most: the Nurse. As a child, Juliet was always taken care by her Nurse, not Lady Capulet, her real mom. Juliet does not directly show how much she relies on Nurse. However indirectly, Juliet feels that the Nurse is her moral and real caring mother that she could trust and rely on, while Lady Capulet is the one who gave Juliet’s birth but she is very ineffectual to Juliet.

The Nurse seems like she’s not the important role in this play. However as I mentioned previously, she is the one character that Juliet trusts and relies on from the begging of the book till the end. I believe it was Nurse’s motherly personality that gave trust to Juliet. Nurse has very strong opinion and she’s not afraid to tell people what it is. She is very kind and well mannered but at the same time, she states her own opinion. As for me, I believe that she’s the most grown up character physically and mentally out of all the characters around Juliet. She really cares for Juliet and believes Juliet’s life can be better with the women she loves and with her dream. Everything that the Nurse does makes the reader and Juliet to rely on her opinion and advises. For example, in Act 1 scene 3, when Lady Capulet mentions Juliet’s age, she corrects her Juliet’s real age. She knows better than Juliet’s real mother. All the description of young Juliet that Nurse gives showed how much she cared for her and that she’s the one that Juliet can rely on. She tells Lady Capulet everything but not high-tempered way, in well mannered way she tells everything that’s what made me think that Nurse was the most mentally and physically grown up.
