I use parent-child grouping extensively. As an example: kings in a dynasty. However, I often want to link a child to a second parent, for example if the king is also a priest. I now make a copy of the child to link them to two parents, but that has quite a few disadvantages. How can I do this better?

Could be a case for tags, which you can filter by.

Thanks but tags is not a case for me, my goal is grouping and not filtering.
I like @Amontillado’s answer because it offers a quick and easy solution.
The default parent-child relationship builds a tree structure, but what you’re looking for is something different.
The way to go might be via the freely definable relationships. In the abstract, both the persons and the groups are items. To be able to assign any person to any group, you can try to define corresponding relationships, for example “member”.
