There's a bunch of dialogue in Romeo and Juliet about how Juliet is too young to get married!

Just the opposite in fact. Juliet's mother tells her that she was Juliet's age when Juliet was born, as part of her argument that Juliet should marry. That makes Lady Capulet 28 in that scene, 14 when Juliet was born.
