Friar Laurence could not think of another way of getting Juliet out of her arranged marriage so he told her one option he could think of. The Friar tells her, “Tale thou this vial, being then in bed, and this distilling liquor drink thou off” (Shakespeare, 293). If Friar Laurence had not given Juliet the fake poison, she would have never been put in the position to kill herself. Trusting Friar John to send the letter to Romeo, without telling him that it was urgent, was Friar Laurence’s next big mistake. The mistake to send someone else to do it was blameworthy. If the Friar delivered the letter personally, the plan that he had in mind might have gone fluently. Friar Laurence’s decision making shows the lack of responsibility by choosing someone who is not worthy or even smart to handle delivering something as simple as a letter. Which results to the death of Juliet because he did not think through the situation and urgency and had no plan
