Why does it seem like everyone assumes you can only socialize in school? I don't think homeschooled kids are particularly deficient in this regard either.

- dx87 6y agoThat's highly dependent on the parents. A lot of homeschooled kids end up normal, but the stereotype of homeshooled kids not knowing how to behave in a social setting exists for a reason. It'll be even worse in the current situation where you have parents that are working full time and don't have time to also organize social activities like the parents who intentionally did homeschooling.
- seneca 6y agoThere's actually a very common joke in the homeschool community: "Sometimes I worry my child is missing out on socializing in school, so once in a while I beat them up and steal their lunch money".
