In William Shakespeare's play "Romeo and Juliet," Juliet and her father, Lord Capulet, argue primarily about her refusal to marry Paris. In Act 3, Scene 5, after Romeo has secretly married Juliet, Lord Capulet insists that she should marry Paris, a suitor he has chosen for her. Juliet is devastated and refuses, stating that she does not want to marry Paris. This leads to a heated argument where Lord Capulet becomes angry and threatens to disown her if she does not comply with his wishes. Juliet's defiance and her father's authoritarian attitude highlight the central conflict between individual desire and parental authority in the play.
