Hi @Michael Edinger 

No! it is the other way around. 1 Parent page can have multiple child pages. Those child pages can then have multiple child pages as well. 

Why would you want two different parent pages? Can you provide and example and maybe I can understand.

Yes two pages who want display their children visually.  One Parent Page displays this child page. Another Parent Page also wants this Child page to be displayed under it,

I can't think of a use for multiple parent pages itself, it just messes up your tree and navigation. 

However "having the same content under different pages" (not quite the same) does have some uses, and you can do that with "include" macros. 

For example

  • Page: Top 
    • Page t1: Child of top 1
    • Page t2: Child of top 2
  • Page: Upper
    • Page U1: Child of upper that should contain the content from "child of top 1"

The physical content of "child of top 1" is your shared content.  Page U1 simply reads "{include t2}"
