Everyone has a dad, even if he dies or disappears early in your life. In Shakespeare's case, his dad was called John and Shakespeare was very fond of him and was very sad when he died (when Shakespeare was about 36).
He was born at a very early age. He was about 0 years and 0 months and 0 days old at the time!
In Shakespeare's time, the term "fond" primarily meant foolish or silly, often used to describe someone who is overly sentimental or naive. However, over time, the meaning shifted to convey affection or tenderness towards someone. This change reflects a broader evolution in language, where words can undergo significant shifts in connotation and usage over the centuries.
Oh, come on. How do we know anyone's innermost thoughts? Especially someone who is dead? Some people are fond of baring their souls in diaries and letters and other documents of an intensely personal nature; if Shakespeare ever did that, every such letter and diary has been destroyed by the ravages of time. Because there is no evidence, people sometimes speculate on what Shakespeare was thinking based on his poetry. But Shakespeare may not have been expressing his innermost thoughts in the poems, which in any case are more philosophical and general in their message. Attempting to figure out what Shakespeare was thinking from his plays is absolutely hopeless, since the lines in the plays are spoken by the characters and are relevant only to the characters and their situation.

Nope. This theory was advanced by a Miss Bacon, a nineteenth-century American looney, who thought it would be fun if Shakespeare didn't write Shakespeare and that they were instead written by her namesake Francis Bacon. Unfortunately, Francis Bacon was a tedious lawyer who was not fond of theatre, and whose writings show not a scintilla of literary talent. The evidence is overwhelming that the author of Shakespeare's works was, in fact, Shakespeare.
Shakespeare was very fond of the verse form iambic pentameter which he used for most of his writing.
No! I am very fond of Shakespeare and have read 5 of his plays. He is a very skilled writer.

The first Elizabeth made William Shakespeare's career. She was very fond of the arts. She adored Shakespeare's plays.

Because he is very fond of it.
No. Christopher Marlowe did, although Shakespeare used it three times in his early plays and poems. Marlowe was very fond of this word and used it 17 times.
James I appears to have been quite fond of them. We have records of the Master of the Revels, Edward Tilney, which show that James requested Shakespeare plays on a number of occasions.

Nobody knows. He was extremely fond of his father, who probably was some kind of role model for him.
