In "Pyramus and Thisbe" the parents simply do not want their children falling in love with each other. We do not know the reason for this and are not told of any feud or conflict. This means that any option that has to do with a conflict between the families should not be chose. Since the children have to hide their love from the families in both pieces of literature, it is safe to say that love between them is forbidden. In the end, Pyramus and Thisbe, Romeo and Juliet die because of their love for each other.
