[quote=Anonymous]I understand why some parents choose to homeschool and I think they have valid concerns when their reasons are education based. OTOH I think what school teaches the majority of children is nuanced group social interaction that generates as the result of being forced into a group of the same people day in and day out for a year (which will then carry over years later to the working world). It's the way kids learn to pick up subtleties that they can't get through a group that meets once a week or so. As far as learning to interact with adults, I don't think school teaches that really. I think kids get them from being with adults they are comfortable with first such as non immediate family, friend's parents, etc and that they can branch out from their. [/quote]
