Describe Juliet's relationship with the Nurse and explain how it changes and why.

At the beginning of the play up until Romeo is banished, Juliet
and the Nurse have a very close relationship, much like a daughter and a mother. Juliet is more
willing to share her thoughts with the Nurse than her mother. When she meets Romeo, Juliet tells
the Nurse all about it, and the Nurse is involved in their plans for marriage. The Nurse truly
cares about Juliet's happiness. However, she makes a big mistake when Romeo kills Tybalt and is
banished as a result. The Nurse turns against Romeo and suggests that Julieit should go ahead and
marry Paris, even though she's married to Romeo. This is when Juliet stops confiding in the Nurse
and depends solely on Friar Laurence for help. Juliet can no longer trust the Nurse if she does
not support her marriage to Romeo.
