Furthermore, growing up without a dad leaves a daughter with an opportunity for mistrust to happen, between the daughter and other boys. There is a saying that says, girls who have daddy problems have boy problems. The saying could not be more true. The father is the first relationship a daughter will have with a guy. Therefore, as said by Jocelyn Romero, girls need to be taught by their fathers about men so when they grow up to women they would be able to acquire healthy relationships (qtd. Romero, 2014). If the father is not there for the daughter then consequently, the daughter will place hurt feelings left by the father to potential boyfriends. She will not be as comfortable with a guy as she would be, rather, if she had that father daughter

    Romeo and Juliet, written by William Shakespeare, is a tragic love story about two young lovers who are forced to be estranged as a result of their feuding families. The play is about their struggle to contravene fate and create a future together. As such, it was only a matter of time before Hollywood would try and emulate Shakespeare’s masterpiece. This had been done before in many films. Prominent among them were, Franco Zeffirelli’s 1968 “Romeo and Juliet” and Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 “William Shakespeare’s Romeo & Juliet.” Both films stay true to the themes of Shakespeare’s original play. However, the modernised Luhrmann film not only maintains the essence of Shakespeare’s writings, Luhrmann makes it relevant to a teenage audience. This is done through the renewal of props and costumes, the reconstruction of the prologue and the upgrading of the setting, whilst preserving the original Shakespearean language. Out of the two, it is Luhrmann who targets Romeo & Juliet to a younger audience to a much larger extent than Zeffirelli.

    Research over the years has emphasized the role family has upon children within a family system. The role a mother plays for her children has been researched continuously for decades, often neglecting the impact of the father. With this lack of knowledge surrounding a father's paternal responsibilities and implications as a nurturer, it is important to examine the consequences of their actions on their children's future. Recently, research has begun to include the father's role, in particular to their daughter and features they look for in their romantic counterparts. If this research were to establish that young girls follow their father's prototype when choosing a romantic partner, parenting styles may change and fathers might become more involved. More importantly, fathers would know their role as not just the provider for material things but for emotional and psychological stability. Father daughter relationships are an important area to research because reports show that father involvement can be vital to children, improving their social skills and future adult relationships.

    Romeo and Juliet is fully summarized in Shakespeare 's prologue: "Two households, both alike in dignity, in fair Verona where we lay our scene. From ancient grudge break to new mutiny where civil blood make civil hands unclean. From forth the fatal loins of these two foes, a pair of star crossed lovers who take their life" (Universal, 1996). This movie is a masterful culmination of the director 's phenomenal ability to create a powerful introduction, to select a realistic, but surreal setting, to choose realistic actors, and to enact specialized dramatic effects.

    Growing up without a father can have a big effect on children and the way that they act as they get older.

The U.S department of Health has stated that children living in a household headed by a female with no spouse present had a poverty rate of 47.6%, which is over 4 times the rate in married coupled families.
