Yes, specific members of a multiple system can front for weeks, years, or decades. Every case is different, and few resemble the textbook definition or the TV stereotype. Most multiple systems do not meet the 'multiple personality sundrome' or DID criteria, and they are self-aware people sharing a body. 'Alternate personality' is actually a misnomer, as every person in the group is equal in conciousness, thought, and 'humanity'. Depending on the system, a person fronting or taking primary control of the body can be voluntary or involuntary, or 'given permission after the fact'. Many multiple systems work to encourage group accountability and personal responsibility so no one takes control for long periods without permission or reason. It is not uncommon for more than one person to be fronting at the same time, or for various levels of control to be in operation as well.
