I mean they just let their kids run wild‚ leaving me to look after them and clean up their messes.” It is true that in the absence of any parental involvement many of the people involved sought advice from the Friar. Both Romeo and Juliet‚ the central figures of the controversy‚ were counselled by Friar Lawrence. But was the Friar’s advice really as harmless as it seemed? It was the Friar who married Romeo and
