Juliet’s attitude toward marriage reveals that B. That she is respectful of her parents but wants to make her own decisions.

Throughout "Romeo and Juliet," Juliet demonstrates a level of respect for her parents, particularly in the early parts of the play, but she also expresses a strong desire for personal choice and love in her marriage. Her willingness to defy her family's expectations to pursue her own feelings for Romeo shows her desire for autonomy in a society that often prioritizes familial arrangements over individual desire.
