Who or what is to blame for the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet?

Many people played a part in the tragedy but perhaps the blame must be laid on the two families who kept the feud active to serve their needs. Only by the Montague and Capulet families losing their precious children their own dynasty, which they begin to recognize the trouble they caused others in the feud. Was this tragedy for the two families? Well yes because in the end only by them losing their children did they resolve to end the feud and cobble together. Even though Romeo and Juliet’s lives were ruined, which means they couldn’t be together in life maybe death was more preferable. The deaths of both Romeo and Juliet were needless, because they were not the ones fighting and disagreeing it was both the Montague and Capulet families but the children ended up suffering from their families mistakes. Even though Romeo and Juliet kept out of the fighting their lives where still made miserable.

Romeo is a young teenager and is a member of the Montague family. Is unfortunately in love with Juliet who is a Capulet. Both inmates of house collectively are rancorous enemies. Romeo Knew that if the households would arrange their marriage Romeo and Juliet would never end up getting married. Romeo’s judgement of not informing his household wasn’t erroneous at all. I would actually say that Romeo is scared of how his family would react when they see their son being in love with their enemies. I think the biggest blunder Romeo done was killing Tybalt, which lead to his adjournment. Albeit that killing Tybalt, was erroneous I even though would suppose that you can’t accusation him because Tybalt was still resolute to fight:

Join now!

“Boy, this shall not excuse the injuries.”

This shows me that Tybalt was resolute get vengeance of the argument. Romeo’s characteristic shows that he is brave to take countless risks in his life. In the terrace scene when Romeo goes to congregate Juliet he risks of getting wedged by the Nurse. Furthermore in Juliet’s bedroom he risks    of getting wedged by Lady Capulet. Additionally spending the Night with Juliet in her bedroom was a major risk even though it was hours of darkness somebody could have walked in ...
