If there is other civilizations that are at the same progression as us, then would these "higher civilizations" extraterrestrials also watch and experiment on them?

Shower thought but it's been bugging my mind... we can't be the only civilization that's on our way to build our civilization to a Type 1. If these extraterrestrials have been more or less, have something to do with our evolution, then must they have been doing the same with other lower civilization? Are we the only civilization they're "interacting"? What will it change if we aren't? I'm sorry if I sound dumb for asking.
