How Does Romeo And Juliet Change Throughout The Play
I think Shakespeare is trying to teach us a lot of things about love. Also, how Juliet and Romeo are growing up and how they change throughout the play. I’m going to focus on Juliet and how she comes of age anywhere from her language to the dissuasions she makes. lets start with keeping Romeo a secret from her parents and also not telling her parents that Romeo killed Tybalt, thats changing from before she met Romeo she was this little innocent girl who didn't disrespect anyone now she hiding Romeo from her parents, thats just one thing she did.

When presently through all thy veins shall run
A cold and drowsy humour, for no pulse
Shall keep his native progress, but surcease:
No warmth, no breath, shall testify thou livest;
The roses in thy lips and cheeks shall fade
