Abstract:
Socio-affective multiparentality is a complex phenomenon that emerges from
contemporary family relationships, challenging traditional concepts of parenting
based solely on biological ancestry. This article seeks to analyze the theoretical
dimensions and legal implications of socio-affective multiparentality, highlighting its
relevance in the context of modern family relationships. Through a review of the
specialized literature and the analysis of jurisprudential cases, we explore the
different theoretical approaches to this phenomenon and examine how it is
recognized and regulated by the legal system in different jurisdictions. It is intended
to show, through jurisprudential and bibliographical research, that there is no ordering
between the affective or civil, multiparentality being a guarantee of the dignity of the
human person of those who intend to have the recognition of a situation of
consolidated affection.
