They are Catholic people and Friar Lawrence is a priest. Although her parents do not let Juliet out of the house for any other reason, they are duty bound as good Catholics to allow her to visit a priest, confess her sins and be absolved--that's one of the sacraments. Juliet uses this excuse twice in the play to get out of the house and go to Friar Lawrence's

∙ 12y agoShe goes twice and she uses the same excuse each time--that she is going to confession. In case you are not Catholic, this is the act of telling a priest what you have done wrong and having the priest tell you what to do to make up for it and that it's ok, God loves you anyway.
Evidently, Juliet is only allowed out of the house when she is going to church.
