Juliet does not seem to be very close with her mother. I think this because whenever her mother called her she seemed very serious. Her mom also did not seem to really care about how Juliet felt about the marriage. Her mom just wanted Juliet to get married. She wanted Juliet to marry julius but she said she would like him. Mercutio is a foil to Romeo because their beliefs are different from Romeo's, and he is very active and lively but Romeo is more of a loving kind of guy. for example look at act one scene three.
