Romeo and Juliet questions

Question 1: Was is wise of Friar Lawrence to give the potion to Juliet? Why or why not?

I think that it was not wise of Friar Lawrence to give the potion to Juliet. One reason why I thought if Juliet told her family that both Romeo and herself are married and love each other dearly, then Juliet's parents might have tried to get Romeo back into Verona. Another reason why was that a Capulet could have found the vial and might know that Juliet is in a deep sleep. This is why giving the potion to Juliet was a bad idea.

Question 2: Do you think that The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is really a tragedy? Explain your response.

I think that The Tragedy of Romeo and Juliet is not really a tragedy. I think that it is not a tragedy because Romeo and Juliet told nearly no one that they were married to each other. Another reason why is that if Romeo and Juliet's parents knew that they kids were married to each other then both of the families might have been glad that their kids were married to each other and there might have been no death in the play.

Question 3: Who was ultimately responsible for all of the death that occurred in the play? Why?

I think that Friar Lawrence was ultimately responsible for all of the death in the play because if Romeo and Juliet were not married then Romeo, Paris, and Juliet would not have died. Also, if Friar Lawrence told Lord Montague and Lord Capulet that their kids were married, then the feud might have ending so Romeo, Paris, and Juliet would not have died. This is why I think that Friar Lawrence was ultimately responsible for all of the death in Romeo and Juliet.
