I have some family friends who homeschooled their six kids. The first three got a thorough, good education and were well-socialized. The last three, not so much. Their mom was older and tired by then, and community support had diminished after the 80's. I will say this though, even though a couple turned out to be "problem children" anyway, they weren't uniquely bad compared to troubled kids in public school.
