Polonius

Polonius can be perceived as a very confusing character. As he can be somewhat humorous at times, he also makes very questionable decisions. When he sent his servant Reynaldo to spy on his son, even though his intentions may be good, he is basically ruining his son's reputation by giving Reynaldo permission to ask other people if Laertes drinks, swears, drabs and etc. I believe Polonius is a very malevolent character and isn't a very trustful father. He doesn't trust his daughter Ophelia or his son Laertes.
