Healthy and Unhealthy relationships

Healthy: Juliet and Nurse Juliet and Nurse are examples of people who have a healthy relationship. Nurse took on the mother role to Juliet at the very beginning of Juliet's life. Nurse is always there for Juliet and no matter what helps Juliet with all her problems. Unlike Lady Capulet Nurse cares for Juliet and treats her right. Juliet looks up at Nurse with so much respect and would never go behind her nor disrespect her. Nurse: "Peace, i have done. God mark thee grace, thou was the prettiest babe that i ever nurse." I used this quote to show Nurse's love towards Juliet. Nurse:" I think you are happy in this second match,for it excels your first, or if it did not, your first is dead, or twere as good he were, as living here and you no use of him." This is Nurse telling Juliet that she should go with Paris, even though she knows she loves Romeo she is just considering Juliet's best interest. Unhealthy: Lady and Lord Capulet Lady and Lord Capulet are married with a daughter but there marriage isn't normal. He is the gangster and she is the gangster wife. The only thing he cares about is power, the only thing she cares about is partying and the bling. In the story they don't show affection towards one another. The never say " I love you" like a normal couple would do, instead Lord Capulet beats there daughter, Juliet and will disown her if she doesn't do as he says and Lady Capulet knows that but yet she doesn't say a word. She lets it happen. Lord Capulet treats Lady with no respect and yet she is still with him and doesn't stick up for herself because she is just in the marriage for the bling, the big house,the parties, none for the right reasons. I think this is one of the unhealthiest relationships in the story other then there relationship with their daughter Juliet.
