Haemon goes from an apparently general support for his father's actions to undeniable opposition. Thus he starts out listing marriage as secondary to the guidance of Theban King Creon as father and sovereign. But he then qualifies the value of that guidance. He finds his father 'wise by nature' but insensitive to the input of his family and his subjects. He describes experience as the fine tuner of wisdom. For example, he characterizes his father as unmindful of the sufferings and preferences of Thebans whose dead aren't having their god given funerary rights respected. He calls Theban public opinion as admiringly supportive of Antigone, and fearfully opposed to Creon. And so he brings out in the open his opposition to the execution of his bride-to-be under the orders of her uncle, Creon.
The decision to spare Ismene is the change that Theban King Creon makes in his plan to kill Antigone and Ismene. Antigone is found breaking the law of non burial to the disloyal Theban dead. Ismene isn't. But Ismene claims that she's an accessory. At first, Creon decides that the death sentence is going to be carried out against both of his nieces. But he then backs down, and decides the only his future daughter-in-law Antigone is going to be executed.
Antigone tells her to tell everyone she doesn't care.
Walling her up in a remote cave is the way in which Theban King Creon plans to kill Antigone. She breaks one of his laws. The penalty is death through fatal injuries from the rocks and stones that her fellow Thebans throw at her. Creon decides to keep the death sentence. But he changes the form to starvation in a cave that's far away from him and his citizens.
Antigone's plan to bury her brother Polyneices is dangerous. It's against the law to give a proper burial to the dead among the Argive enemy and their traitorous Theban allies. It's a difficult job to do. Antigone asks for her sister Ismene's help, which isn't forthcoming. The punishment is death by stoning.
No.Because she scare to break the law of KING Creon.

He did not have to, he chose to.
That this is exactly according to plan and that she accepts responsibility for her act the moment that she decides to carry it out is the reason why Antigone is not ashamed when she has to go before Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone decides that she will break her uncle King Creon's law. She knows that her civil disobedience carries a death sentence. She takes responsibility for her act and its punishment.

Give him a proper burial and Theban-stylefuneral rites is what Antigone plans to do with Polyneices in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the gods guarantee all Thebans of below-ground burials and funeral rites. Theban Princess Antigone's brother Polyneices is being denied these rights by a law recently issued by Antigone's uncle, King Creon. Antigone plans to give Polyneices a below-ground burial if her sister Ismene helps or a partial burial if Ismene refuses. Either way, Polyneices' body will be considered buried in compliance with Theban traditions.
