Conclusion
Like the rest of her choices, Juliet's decision to end her life is definitive. Once her mind is made up, there is no talking her out of it. Though the Friar tries to influence her, Juliet will not be persuaded. Her death scene is short. With a "happy dagger" (5:3:169) and very little ceremony, Juliet Capulet takes her own life. This act of death really is the greatest act of independence any young person could take. Juliet Capulet felt the need to commit suicide, as she had no-one: she had been abandoned by her mother, father and nurse, and her husband lay dead next to her. When she woke up and saw his body, she acted very quickly and independently. She made the decision that she thought was best, and although she did, in the end, die, she did so in the name of love. At the end of the day, we have to remember that Juliet Capulet was only thirteen years old. She was still a child. And in the space of only a few days this young girl: fell in love; married illicitly; lost her virginity; experienced the death of a close cousin; was threatened and nearly disowned by both of her parents; was betrayed by the nurse who raised her from infancy; spent nearly two days drugged to unconsciousness; was widowed; and woke up next to her dead husband. That's a lot of things for a young girl to cope with! Whether, as a dutiful daughter, she handled the situations she was put in, well or not, and whether she did fundamentally make the right decisions in the end, I believe that Juliet Capulet, as a young woman, knowingly made the ultimate sacrifice for love, and this act of independence made her believe that she would forever be joined with her true love Romeo. To be honest, I don't blame Juliet for committing suicide! She had already lost everything. I think she had more than a good enough reason to take her life. Don't you?
