[quote=Anonymous]I don't want to turn this into a HS debate so I'll just make this one post. I think the concern is valid about the social skills of homeschoolers and there are certainly some with very little. There are some homeschooling parents with the goal of keeping their kids in a little bubble. But let's not pretend a traditional school environment is all that indicative of the real world, either. Maybe your kids go to super special schools where this is not the case, but to me, being segregated by age and zipcode/socioeconomic bracket, and sitting in a classroom for many hours with these same people doesn't exactly resemble "life". We homeschool, and part of the reason I think it is beneficial to my kids is that we have a lot more time to actually go out in the world and DO things, interact with a variety of people. My kids' days are spent out and about, with people in the community. They play with the neighbor kids. They're on sports teams. They socialize with kids from local homeschooling groups. [/quote]
