Why is Capulet so upset at Juliet's refusal to marry Paris?

Answer 1

Romeo is a Montague and Juliet is a Capulet; they are from two families who dislike each other.

When Lord Capulet wanted Juliet to marry Paris she refused so he threatened to disown her.

Answer 2

Juliet does not threaten her father. That would be unthinkable. She threatens Friar Lawrence with suicide if he doesn't help her. Friar Lawrence's reaction is forced and gives Juliet a sleeping potion to make her seem dead.

Answer 3

It's all about his ego. He promised Paris that she would agree to marry him, and if he now has to go back to him and say, "Sorry, I lied. She won't marry you after all" he will look like a chump. Capulet cannot face that.

Answer 4

Capulet is upset because he believes marrying Paris will secure Juliet's future and bring the family honor and status. He sees Juliet's refusal as disobedience and a threat to the family's reputation. Additionally, Capulet may have made promises or agreements with Paris or his family, which adds to his frustration.

Answer 5

Lord Capulet treatens to disown Juliet if she fails to marry Paris.
