    You have at least something of how they interact with outsiders. But how do they interact with each other? How do they greet one another, what sports or games do they play, what are their values when concerning relationships (all kinds, not just romantic). How are the young raised, and how. Is daycare a thing? Does one parent have full duty? What are their methods for keeping the kids in check?
