Lets assume Adalind did actually suppress her powers. Remember Adalind said her mother thought about it when she was having a rough time. Well Adalind is surely having a rough time.

Adalind not being a hexenbiest would solve the complaint about. Nick rejecting the hexenbiest in Juliette but accepting it in Adalind. This would let the writers have Nick and Adalind raise their son together. You have plenty of drama because they don't love each other, plus the years of bad history. Even though Adalind does not have her powers, she still has her old ways of scheming to get what she wants. This cause plenty of arguments between Nick and Adalind. The couple that is constantly fighting.

You would then have Diana admiring Juliette because she enjoyes and uses her powers. Something that Diana has wanted to be able to do. While with Kelly she was prevented from using them, for fear of them being discovered. Now that she is staying with Nick and Adalind, Nick wants Diana  to deny being a hexenbiest and not use her powers. He wants to fix her. You could even have Nick getting frustrated with Diana causing trouble and being out of control. Diana wanting to follow Juliette as a role model could also be a problem for Nick. He could keep suggesting they suppress Diana's powers.

Rosalee could be like the aunt who keeps telling Nick it is a phase and Diana will grow out of it. or because Diana is acting so much like Juliette Rosalee agrees for Diana's own good they should suppress her powers.

Nick and Adalind would be the dysfunctional family that Juliette keeps instagating conlict in. The main conflict is Juliette relation with Diana which is better then Diana's relation with Adalind. Juliette keeps encouraging Diana to embrace who she is. To be all she can be. Diana becomes the daughter Juliette never had.

Juliette has this friends with benefit thing with Sean. Which make Adalind jealous. Diana adores her father and sees Juliette as a role model. They actually have a better family relation then Nick and Adalind who are actual living as a family.
