This is a poor argument. Seriously: I didn't spend much time socializing with my chronological peers either. At least with my academic peers we had some share

  I didn't either, but it's not a poor argument just because you're an exception to it. Socialization is a very important part of human development.

    It's a poor argument because it makes the unsupported assumption that children will socialize better with their chronological peers than with their intellectual peers. I agree that socialization is important - and that's exactly why I think it's entirely unreasonable to surround children with people with whom they share nothing except age.
