==Family Size and Interactions==
Up to 8 [[Zoi]]s can live as a single family/household. If the family is already at eight, new [[pregnancies]] automatically fail. The developers noted that "someone in your family would have to [[die]]" before another Zoi could be added to that household.
Family or group interactions in [[Early Access]] are somewhat basic. For example, a [[child]] can ask a [[parent]] to [[cook]] [[food]] or do [[laundry]], emphasizing that little kids would not naturally handle those [[tasks]] themselves. While they hope to expand cooperative or group/family gameplay, only limited forms of it are initially present.
==Marriage and Divorce==
'''[[Marriage]]''' and '''[[Divorce]]'''
==Pregnancy and Newborns==
* '''[[Pregnancy]]''' interactions: [[Zoi]]s can announce pregnancies, hold [[parties]], experience [[cravings]], etc. 
* [[Newborn]] gameplay: Limited at launch, but more baby-related interactions are planned for future updates. 
* Technical challenges: [[Infant]]s have a unique body structure requiring special animations.
==Giving Birth and Parenting==
[[File:birth_and_parenting1.png|350px|right]]
After your [[Zoi]] becomes pregnant. After 3 days, the result of their love, a [[baby]], will be born. [[Babies]] cannot do much on their own, so be sure to surround them with love and care from the [[family]] to help them grow up healthy.
==Add A New Family==
[[File:add_a_new_family1.png|350px|right]]
To create a new [[family]], on the [[Edit City]] screen, click on any empty [[house]] or [[property]] and the [[Select Family]] button will appear.
You can move in a [[household]] from the family presets, or click [[Create New Family]] to make your own. Add a new family and continue building your dream life in the city.
==Genetics==
[[File:genetics1.png|350px|right]]
When a [[baby]] is born, they often take after their [[parents]] in both [[looks]] and [[traits]]. [[Hair color]], [[facial features]], [[Skills]], etc... Which traits of each parent will be passed down to the baby?

To move Zois between two existing households, effectively splitting or merging them:
# Open the [[Smartphone]].
# Go to the '''[[City Map]]''' app.
# Access the '''Manage Zois''' section.
# Navigate to the '''Manage Family''' tab.
# Select the ''''Move Zois Between Families' ''' option.
# Choose '''up to two families''' to manage transfers between.
# Select the specific Zois you wish to move from one family to the other.
# You can manually decide how much of the household '''[[Meow|assets]]''' (funds) are transferred with the moving Zois.
#* ''Note:'' Leaving a newly formed or split-off family with no assets may prevent them from buying a house if they don't already own one.
#* ''Tip:'' You can use the ''''Create a Temporary Family' ''' option within this tool to act as a temporary holding place for Zois during complex reorganizations involving multiple households.
* Changing family members this way '''does not''' affect their surnames.
* This is the primary method for having '''unmarried Zois live together as roommates''', as the social interaction to 'Ask to Move In' typically only appears for married or engaged Zois.
