To my dearest daughter, Desdemona,
Ever since you had left Venice, your home, I had came to a realisation that I, your loving father should always accept you and your decisions after all you are my loving daughter. Your mother and I had been blessed by the gods with a gift much more valuable than any riches and when I first laid eyes on you I knew that you would always be like your mother, you inherited her beauty, personality and all of her other unique qualities that she possessed and from me you inherited my spirit, stubbornness and to always follow your heart. I did not see it back then and I was only thinking about the future of the family name and in doing so I forgot about your happiness. I had believed that I had failed as a father and sought for advice from my dear brother, Gratiano, I informed him of the courses of events that had taken place in our household and that his niece has left for Cyprus with her newly wedded husband that I did not approve of. I had hoped that Gratiano would take part in my side but your uncle had reminded me of what I had done to protect and to preserve my love for you beloved mother. So I write to you to ask for forgiveness for the disappointing father that failed to accept you and to tell you the story that you had long requested for.
That night after

abandoning you, your husband and the high senate of Venice, I had thought that you had brought shame upon my name and that I had failed to be a father, the role model that was meant to be respected and looked up upon and now I have come to realise that it was I that has truly brought shame to the family. I failed to see what you saw, for nothing can stand in the way of love and because I had lost the one I truly loved, your loving mother and my beloved wife, Isabella, I had forgotten what it means to love another and to be willing to sacrifice anything for love. Tis true that Love is a gift from God that cannot be false and I had been blessed by it. The story begins in another great city, Verona, when I had first fell in love with this beautiful daughter of a noble man that was highly respected by the people and I as well was the first son of a noble man. But my life was set out for me with a fate that I did not approve of, for I had to marry Helena, the first daughter of our family rival to build a strong bond and relationship so that the two families do not cause any trouble within the city. I did not accept this fate that was set for me, I did not love Helena and nor did Helena love me. I had fallen in love with another, she was as beautiful as a newly blossomed rose and she fell in love with me. This daughter of a noble man that I had fallen in love with was no other than your mother, Isabella. Indeed I loved your mother but her father did not accept me, for my family name did not rank high enough to be respected by her father.
He had forbidden us to ever see each other again but we did not let that get in the way of true love. Your mother and I would sneak out and meet with each other and every time I saw her I fell deeper in love with her. I had chosen the right fate for me and was destined to be with her, little did I know that her father had already arranged her marriage with a much superior and respected man than I. When I had heard that she was getting married I had grown jealous and angry but I knew that this day would come, since her father never accepted
me. Your mother and I had already envisioned a way to always be with each other, we intended to run away to far off city much greater then Verona, to another great city called Venice and there we would get married on our own free will and to be free of the fates that was chosen by our parents. We chose our own fates and followed our destiny, for we were destined to be together. Together we would build our way up and start our own family. I used the great trading skills and techniques that I had learnt from your grandfather to start up my own trade and to this day the trade has brought me great riches and respect from many highly noble men. And as for Helena she was to marry someone that she loved, Gratiano my younger brother. The grudge between the two families soon vanished and formed a resilient bond through marriage. Now I remember what it means to love one and what you have done to preserve it. I shouldn’t blame you for the choices you have made because I have done the same thing to be with the one I love. I know that one cannot ignore or overlook love and that you must do everything and anything to preserve love. I truly understand your decisions that you have made and as your father I am proud to have raised a beautiful daughter that follows her heart. So I ask you for forgiveness for not accepting you, your decisions and for being a disappointing father, I hope you understand and wish for you and your husband to return home safely.
Rosaline CapuletVerona, ItalyDear Madam Capulet:I am writing to inform you that you are hereby charged with the hannus crime of murder, as the cause of many deaths and misery.

Because you refused to marry anyone, let alone my client, you cause him tremendous grief and suffering. You turned my client into the epitome of melancholy and depression.

Emotional Relationship that Exists Between Juliet and her Father in William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet
In both films, the depiction of the parental figures is also hugely important, and for both directors, remarkably similar. Zeffirelli appears to project an inherent distrust of parental figures, fitting with the ideology of youth culture in the 1960s and 70s, in which parental figures of authority began to be widely questioned. As Deboral Cartmell proposes “the extremely young Romeo and Juliet […] can do no wrong; the older Capulets and Montagues are severely flawed.”10 Cartmell 's suggestion is one recognised by many critics who have studied Zeffirelli 's Romeo and Juliet, a film in which the young lovers ' parents very clearly hold a large part of the blame for the eventual tragic suicide. The depiction of the extremely young lovers, Hussey
Shakespeare has been know for many plays but one of his famous one is “Romeo and Juliet” Which has two teens from rivalling families who fell in love with each other but through misunderstandings and not well thought out plans by their mentors led to both Romeo and Juliet’s death by suicide.

Anna Freud, the founder of child psychoanalysis, once said, “It is only when parental feelings are ineffective or too ambivalent or when the mother's emotions are temporarily engaged elsewhere that children feel lost” (“Anna Freud”). In this case, the children, Romeo and Juliet, get lost and confused, leading to their ultimate deaths. While they cannot live without each other, they also cannot live with each other either, since they end up dying together from all the conflicts piling on top on each other. Since Romeo and Juliet do not really have any parental influence in their lives, they do not know how resolve their conflict of star-crossed love. Due to miscommunication, conflicting viewpoints between parents and adolescents, and a lack of involvement in their children’s lives, Shakespeare shows through Romeo and Juliet that adults are ineffective in saving their children’s lives.
My father may have abandoned me as his daughter, but I still love him. I am true to my emotions. My senses are clear, I see more clearly than my sisters, and the rest of this poison that has tainted this precious kingdom. I feel that my sister’s intentions are not quite as honourable as my father has once thought. My father is blinded with vanity after all, and so flattering words can fool his precious mind, that craves attention, and constant reassurance. My father is blind to what he can see in front of him I know he will realise what he has done to me, and the kingdom. I have faith that he will see the light, and that the almighty gods will guide him to his rightful self. After all this though my father should suffer for his blindness, but on the other hand he is nothing but an old fragile man, who needs love, that is skin deep and that is shown through actions and gestures, not meaningless words that have sprouted from sweet evil lies. He has been tormented so much by my sisters, and people he thought he could trust have let him down.

It was on a Friday morning at 4:30 A.M. that happiness and joy filled the hearts of both my parents. I was born on November 29, 1996 at Broward General Hospital in Fort Lauderdale Florida. My parents had five children, and among the five children that they had, I was the third (or middle) child from them. It started off as two boys, then I came along as the first girl, after it was another boy, then finally, another baby girl; so total was three boys and two girls. The way that my parents lived and treated each other was the same as if any other married couple that loved each other so much. They’ve gone through a lot to get to where they are now today, but they made it and along the way had us five children. They have been really strong with each other which made them only have the five of us and no other step children. My mom is a great cook and enjoy cooking for us; this is probably where my passion for culinary comes from. My dad is an amazing tailor, he is very good at making our clothes, and my passion for fashion probably came from him. My dad is also a teacher, one of the best math teacher I know, he is passionate about his job and his family is the center of his universe. I cannot finish this chapter without mentioning my grandmother, I was lucky enough to have ever met. I had spent part of my life time with her, like the rest of the family she is sweet, my grandmother Abelus,
