yes. in my experience home schooled kids are usually smarter and more well adjusted then kids that go to public school.

No because it takes away a more important part of growing up, making friends and learning social lessons.

I don't believe you get the same opportunity schooling at home.

I think it is awesome. I would LOVE to have been able to travel all around North America and the globe with my children...following their interests while introducing them to new cultures.
I think this would have been the BEST education!


Truly...

I believe in, and support it - but - I think that parents who home-school their children really need to make that extra effort to get them socialized with kids their age.

Of course not, however the opportunity is greater. Don't be silly

That making friends and learning to socialize is a BS excuse.

My employer was home schooled and it's easy to tell. Socially inept.
