Dyani Kennedy Juliet is far more mature in taking the news as she has become much stronger due to not only her reliance on Romeo but her boosted confidence in that she fell in love with someone she truly loved over someone she was almost forced to love. She, instead of falling into grief and swearing revenge on the Montagues, instead found Tybalt the evil one for starting the clash and thus decided to side with Romeo despite all her family loathing his existence, all due to the fact that she saw the good in the Montagues through Romeo instead of the evil that her family had sworn was their only capability,
Juliet is emotional but not over emotional. If your cousin was killed by your husband then your husband was exiled, you would be upset too. She does love Romeo more than Tybalt so the news about Romeo was more devastating. I would be very upset if I was in her shoes. I think she takes it well for how bad the news is, but is still taking it hard. But she is very mature about it.
Juliet does handle the news of Romeo's banishment very well in my opinion. I think that her whole love for Romeo is over the top. I don't think someone can love anyone that much in one day so I think she is a little immature in that sense, but for this scene, if your husband was banished, you would act the same way. She handles that news well.
Juliet responds to the news very dramatically. She says that her mother, father, Tybalt, and herself being killed is not as a bad a Romeo's banishment. I think she over reacted because it is not like he is dead, she could still see him again. In this situation, I feel Juliet was slightly immature. She could have handled the situation better and at least showed some grief over the loss of her cousin.
Juliet is very upset that Romeo will be banished. I think she was too extreme with her emotions. She explains that she would rather al her family die than Romeo to be banished. This is very selfish of her because she is sacrificing innocent lives just for Romeo. Romeo is not to be killed. He is only banished. I believe Juliet should be thankful he is alive and mourn little. In this instance, I do not think Juliet is mature because she is making haste and harsh decisions.
Juliet is very supportive of Romeo, and I think she handles it well. Romeo killed her cousin, but she realizes that it was her cousin who started the violence and killed Romeo's cousin. She knows Romeo was justified in what he did and she will not speak poorly of her husband. She also does not want him to leave or to be banished. She is very disappointed and sad that Romeo was banished, and she does not want to lose her husband. I think Juliet is mature, because she does not really over react even with all of the terrible news she has just received. Juliet handles the entire situation well even though her husband is exiled and her cousin is dead.
Juliet seems to be very emotional but not over emotional about what has happened. She is very sad but because she worries about Romeo. Secondly because a family member has been killed. The man she has just married got into a fight with her cousin, Tybalt who is very angry at Romeo for going to the ball without an invitation. So that made her very worried about Tybalt trying to kill Romeo, therefore making her very sad about what has happened.
I think Juliet and Romeo are equal in their level of how mature they are. I say this because Juliet was crying and upset about the news of Romeo's banishment. Although she didn't make a scene about it. Romeo is mature because he never wanted to fight Tybalt. He used his words instead of actions. He tried to break up the fight when Tybalt and Mercutio started. He's a lover, not a fighter.
When Juliet heard the news about Romeo's banishment, I do not think she handled it maturely. Instead of coming up with ways she could still see and love Romeo, she broke down and started complaining about how terrible it was. Juliet explained how it would be better for everybody else she loved to die than for Romeo to be banished. There could still be ways Juliet could see him, she just needed to be able to calm down and see the possibilities of how this situation could work out for them. In conclusion, I believe Juliet could have handled this situation more maturely than she did.
Juliet handles the news like I would expect her to. Some may say she ove reacted but this is a big deal and this new can not be taken lightly. Although she lashes out at the Nurse you have to realize that she was just told her husband has killed her cousin and is now banished from the city. Juliet seems very distressed and quite upset but overall I believe she took the news very well and is now determined to see Romeo.

So that made her very worried about Tybalt trying to kill Romeo, therefore making her very sad about what has happened.
Juliet responds to the news of Romeo's banishment in a way one would expect of a newlywed learning of her husband's banishment. She is very sad and anguished, but also has the sense to see Romeo one last time before he has to leave, and her emotions don't overrule her values and/or her beliefs. Overall, her reaction to Romeo's banishment is fairly mature.
During this scene, I think that Juliet reacted more immaturely to Romeo's banishment than Romeo did. I can see how much she cares about Romeo not coming to see her at night because he left, but she should have thought more about her cousin's death. Romeo on the other hand got revenge by killing Tybalt, and he simply left after. If I were Juliet, I would have reacted the same way most likely because I too would care about my husband leaving the city, and I would care about my cousin's death, but I would forgive Romeo.
She handles it as expected. Her cousin has been killed and her husband has been banished. As a result, she is very upset but she'd rather have Tybalt dead and Romeo living because she loves him more and he is her husband. She is worried for Romeo and she knows her short marriage has come to an end. Overall, I think she is average when it comes to being mature because she does threaten to kill herself but she does have a right to be upset/sad/mad because an unfortunate event has occurred in her life.
Juliet's reaction was very emotional. She was more upset about Romeo being banished than Tybalt being killed. Also, she described the absence of Romeo the same as if everyone she loved died. Through her reaction, I think Juliet is less mature. This is because she acts like he died and like there's nothing she can do about it.
Juliet handles the news of Romeo's exile rather poorly. She seems to feel no remorse for the death of her cousin, Tybalt. And instead of figuring out ways to deal with or solve the problem, she instead gets overwhelmed, and her nurse is forced to think of a solution. Overall, I do not think that Juliet is more mature than Romeo. Mainly because she doesn't have as much life experience, as she is younger and seemingly less adventurous.
Juliet takes the news as I imagine anyone else would. Juliet was upset and handles it as though she lost everything since Romeo has been exiled. Juliet is fairly mature about it even though she was upset about it. Even after the nurse promises to find Romeo she is still upset. But I would think anyone who lost who they loved would be upset. I know that if I found out the person I loved and just got married to got banished and I could not see them anymore, I would probably be just as upset.
I think that Juliet's reaction was fine. She is only 13, after all. Her crying about Romeo's banishment is perfectly acceptable. Juliet is acting much more mature because she isn't blinded by sadness or rage and performs an act that would get her banished, unlike Romeo. If Romeo was mature enough to control his anger, maybe things wouldn't have ended the way they did.
Juliet handles the news the way that I would expect anyone to handle it. Anyone would be crying, completely overcome by the fact that they would probably never see their true love again. It would hurt a lot to have someone that special to you taken away. At the moment, it would probably seem a lot worse than it is, explaining her reaction. It is a terrible event, and her reaction matches, yet later on, her reaction may change. She may notice that there are other opportunities for her. In the end, though, I believe that Juliet handled the news like anyone would. I think Juliet would be more mature about the news, for we know that he is a bit more dramatic. When both are talking of love, Romeo goes all out and seems to be dramatic about it, while Juliet is a bit more in a daze. She is a bit dramatic, but more so "on cloud nine".
Discuss the way Juliet handles the news of Romeo's banishment.
Juliet takes the news in a very mature way. She realizes that it all started because of her cousin Tybalt and isn't mad at Romeo. Also she realizes that she should be thankful that Romeo was not killed. Also I think that from this situation, she has grown even more mature. I think so because she defended Romeo from the nurse.
Juliet reacts to Romeo's banishment at first, slightly dramatically. She says her heart is bankrupt and that she wants to be buried with Romeo. I think that saying that is a little bit extreme but I can also understand why Juliet would be so hard broken. Since the Capulets and the Montagues were enemies, it made it hard for Romeo and Juliet to be able to see each other. Now, they won't be able to really get to see each other at all. She also says that she is ashamed because she criticized Romeo and realizes that Tybalt would have killed Romeo. I think that the most dramatic part of the scene is when Juliet says that if after discovering Tybalt's death, she would have found out her parents died, she would have felt normal. Instead, with the bad news of Romeo's banishment, she is upset. I think that this is extreme because it is pretty much saying that her parents mean nothing to her, when Romeo is her world. So, I think that Juliet is being a little bit dramatic by saying that she can not live without Romeo.
Juliet is more upset about Romeo's banishment than Tybalt's death. In a way, it's understandable how she would react to her new husband's banishment from the city, but she just lost her cousin. I would think she would be a least a little upset about Tybalt's death. It's quite an extreme situation and I understand her position in it. I think she handled it maturely.
I think that Juliet reacted very appropriately. She was very emotional but I think that was ok because her cousin was killed by her husband! She did not show a lot of anger toward either one of the people involved but instead more sorrow. If she was angry at all it was anger more toward Tybalt. She knew that he wanted to kill Romeo more than anything so she wasn't as angry as Romeo for killing him.
When the news of Romeo's banishment reaches Juliet, she responds very emotionally–almost to an extreme. She states that losing Romeo is the equivalent of having everyone she loves dead, which is obviously not a rational response. After her initial reaction and shock of the situation, she begins to lash out at the nurse, who has not really done anything wrong. The way in which Juliet reacts is close to how one would expect a wife who just essentially lost her husband to react. It must also be taken in to account that she is only 14 years old. It is evident that she is not thinking clearly and thinking the situation through, mostly due to the shock of the situation.
Juliet handles Romeo's banishment like a 13- year old girl might- she cries. She is upset that Tybalt was killed but she's more upset that her husband cannot live in Verona with her anymore. Juliet I think will be more mature than Romeo. She definitely has the mindset of someone wiser than her age, and it aids her in situations she comes upon. She doesn't do anything more than cry to her nurse about this incident, which is better than Romeo might take it. Romeo just ran from the situation when he killed Tybalt. He is the overdramatic type, so he might be less mature about his banishment.
Juliet handles the banishment of Romeo with grief of titanic proportions but defends his act of villainy against Tybalt. For the despondent circumstances, Juliet dealt with the situation as appropriately as she was able with the expression of mourning at the eternal loss of her true adoration but does not display any behavior of infantility or foolishness. As a character, Juliet differs from Romeo in demeanor but is equal in the exhibition of emotion. Juliet elects to remain in peace and decency at the reception of displeasing news especially at hearing the banishment of Romeo. Although she was distraught, Juliet remained in a state of pacifism that did not create further strife unlike the mannerism of her husband. Romeo's character is one of more violent or rash temperament with his response to the murder of Mercutio by slaying Tybalt in a fiery storm of vengeance that overwhelmed his being. Of these two character's Juliet is the one of greater maturity despite because of her ability to control her emotions to simply misery instead of assault such as Romeo. A character of immaturity would have acted with revenge towards the supposed oppressor instead of Juliet's response of depression.
In my opinion, Juliet handled the news well for only being thirteen. She got upset, but that is expected because she found out her cousin was killed and her husband is banished from Verona in the same day. Juliet should feel lucky that Romeo was not killed. She can probably still write to him. From what I read so far, Juliet's character is more mature than Romeo. I can tell from her actions and dialog. I know that Romeo is more childish because he could not hold back his angry in the fight with Tybalt. I predict that Romeo will freak out and not handle the news well because he is very dramatic.
I believe that Juliet handled the news more appropriately than Romeo, but it was still a bit over-the-top. She mourned and wept, but she was not as dramatic as Romeo. Romeo was on the verge of killing himself and wailed and complained. Friar Laurence even commented that he should be more of a man and not so "womanish". Juliet handles the situation with more level headedness than Romeo; however, she seems to not even mourn over the loss of her close cousin. Romeo is still alive and Juliet acts as though he is in the grave along with Tybalt.
Juliet takes the news a lot more maturely than Romeo. She had only cried and spoke out of anger and frustration. While Romeo had become sad and had almost immediately threatened to kill himself. The reason being is because he didn't want to live in a world where he couldn't be with Juliet. Juliet was also a lot more calm even though she was dramatic. Romeo had immediately started freaking out about how he's going to go on with out his Juliet. He had felt no reason to live without his Juliet and almost took drastic measures, thank goodness for Friar Lawrence.
