I don't really know if I feel bad for Agamemnon or not. I feel bad for him because he survived the Trojan War (which was really rough) to be killed by his little ole wife. That sucks! haha. But then I think about it, and he kind of deserved to be killed. I think I would go crazy too if my husband killed our daughter just so his silly little ship could go to Troy for a stupid reason. I don't condone what she did, but I can understand why. But she gets screwed over too by her son, which she was warned about, but chose to ignore it. Haven't these people figured it out yet? If you are given a warning, then actually listen to it and take it into consideration. Don't just blow it off, because you'll end up dead like everyone else in these stories!!!
Oh! And my question is: Did Clytemnestra know about the curse? And if she knew would she have still done it? Hmmm
I commented on Callie's
Simply put, I think the biggest reason they "choose" not to avoid it is because they really can't. Although they are warned, it is fated that it will happen, so maybe their ignorance and choice to not heed the warning is because it is fated for them to ignore it.
