In the famous Shakepearian play, Romeo and Juliet, it is clear that the characterization is apt. Teenagers tend to act rashly and without forethought when it comes to being in love. The impuslive actions taken by Romeo and Juliet; from Romeo's appearance in her courtyard the night of the party, to the sneaking away to see Friar Lawrence, to the clandestine operations to elope and be married....all indicate rashness and impulsiveness on the part of the two lovers.
