Suppose Romeo and Juliet had not acted so hastily getting married. What effect, if any, would yhat have on the play

I do think that if they slowed down that it would have any effect on the play, but I also think that if they would have slowed down a little that they could focus on there relationship, they could focus more on there feelings and love for one another. Although the play was good I think that the play could be more emotional and passionate for readers if they waited and did not kill thereself because both of them had an enormous amount of love for each other, any love added to that would be suprising.

Could the same thing happen to two teenagers today? Explain why or why not.

I think that the same actions can occur now as a teenager because more and more teens are getting in relationships and falling in love more than ever and would risk any and everything for the one they love. I don't think that they would drink poison or make up the same plan as Friar Lawerence and Juliet, in my opinion if someone loves the person there with and loses them nine times out of ten it would be because of one breaking up with another and there is a 99.9% chance that today a teenager would kill themself, but im not saying it won't happen this is just my opinion.

Why do you think racism still exist?

I think racism still exist because some people still has the "back in the day" southern mantallity. I think if people would look at America as a growing country trying to better itself and not how it use to be when it was segregation and more racism than it is now maybe racism wouldn't exist. The reason why i say America is because it's happening all over but I do not no where.

"How would you have felt as ateenager back then if you read about the till murder in the newspaper"

If i was a teenager I would be very sad to view that moment because Till lost his life because of a whistle. I would be even more sad because the two men were found not guilty, and when they confessed that they killed Till they still did nothing about the murder.

"What promise does Amir breaks"

Amir breaks his promise about taking sohrab to America without being harmed. He was sad and hurt that he broke the promise he made to Sohrab because he made a big promise and broke, and to try and make up for it he volunteered and prayed on doin certain things that have to do with religion like fasting for example. I also think that Amir broke a promise by saying that Sohrab can be part of the family.

"A boy who wont stand up for himself becomes a man who can't stand up to anything"

In my personal thoughts I think the quote means that if you don't take up for or stand up for yourself in a early age, when you grow up you will be the same and standing up for yourself is an important part of being a man. Also in the book "The Kite Runner" Baba said this to Rahim Khan and Rahim Khan said it to Amir.

"Afghans abhor customs but cherish rules"

I think that the quote means that afhanis regard there customs but they obay and follow the rules they set for them in their beleifs. In my own thought I think the quote should be stated as a must because if Afghanis do not obay the rules afghanistan will be much worse, but also they should not abhor customs.
