My point in each response have been about the show using a child’s emotional turmoil to create Nick/Adalind drama. Well, actually, Nick drama. Adalind is at best an accessory, just as she’s been since the character was introduced.
Let’s try it this way. The show has progressed Adalind toward full circle. From heartless, selfless vixen to devoted mother - until now. Why have Adalind, the devoted mother, put a man before her child just to create drama?
Why not have Adalind decide that not being with Nick right now is best for Diana just when Nick is realizing he might feel something for Adalind as more than his son’s mother? The show would still have the Nick drama, but without disregarding a child’s emotional turmoil.
I don’t ship, so I don’t care about Nick & Adalind or anyone else hooking up. For all I care Nick can marry Adalind, he can marry Juliette, he can have a wild & crazy weekend in Las Vegas with Elizabeth and they can be married by an Elvis impersonator minister.
I’ve only been talking about Diana’s wellbeing and Adalind’s responsibility to make Diana her first priority. For now, the show is portraying Diana as a child. Adalind and Renard consider her a child, their child. So she needs to be treated with the care one would expect for a child. Diana needs full access to her parents. She needs ongoing love, affection, and guidance from her parents. Adalind and Renard might not can live together, but it won’t kill them to live single for a while. But to me, if Adalind could move in with Nick when Kelly’s was born, she could manage a platonic living arrangement with Renard.
