A child introduces emotional, practical, and legal responsibilities that don't exist when there's only adults involved.

But there also seem to be questions regarding who the biological father is.

Yet Stefano treats Natalino as his own, even though there's a potential he's not.

Then Barbara tires of Salvatore and moves on to his brother.

Was that mutually agreed upon?

If not, then that had the potential.

To create a real issue.

And from a family systems perspective, this creates opportunities for something called coalitions.
matched
And a coalition occurs when two people become aligned in a way that changes the balance of the larger group.
matched
And those alliances aren't necessarily intentional or malicious all the time.

But they often happen naturally as relationships evolve, and they can create resentment, divided loyalties, and conflict, especially when the people involved are family members.

Those are always going to be experienced subjectively, but according to the research, some possible benefits have been reported as greater independence, higher rates of intentional communication, more honesty and transparency, sexual variety or exploration, reduced pressure.
matched
And personal growth and development, as well as flexibility.
matched
And overall, just more satisfaction have been reported.
matched

matched
Some possible risks that were identified in the research are jealousy, boundary violations, the breakdown in communication, inequality, and emotional.
matched
Investment, changing needs, power imbalances, attachment complications, social stigma, which is certainly happening right now in Florence, and sexual health concerns.
matched
And again, this is based on the research.
matched
I'm reporting this from the research directly, but everyone's experience is going to be different.
matched
So that concept of coalition we talked about earlier, Stefano, Salvatore, and Francesco may have different motivations for teaming up, but their interests are definitely aligned here.
