What is complicated about Antigone's line in 'Antigone'?

That the children are half-siblings to their father, that the mother is also the grandmother, and that the mother is wife and mother to their father are what is complicated about Antigone's family line in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban monarchs Oedipus and Jocasta do not know it but they are not only husband and wife but also son and mother. This means that Jocasta is both mother and grandmother to their children Antigone, Eteocles, Ismene and Polyneices. It also means that Oedipus is both father and half-brother to their children.
