Hamlet, 1.3.

The reaction of Laertes and Polonius after finding out that thier sister/daughter Ophelia had been involved with Hamlet exposes the true love and protection the two men show for her. Disagreeing with everything Ophelia has done, her father, Polonius, shows the rage he has by giving her an extended tyraid and harsh words. Nodding her head in agreement, Ophelia hears but does not listen to what her father is saying. Her brother also does not agree with her decision to be with Hamlet, thus talks down the idea as well. I say she makes her own decisions and go to Hamlet if she wants :)
