Anecdotally, most current or former homeschooled kids I meet seem pretty socially awkward. I wonder if It's because the miss-out on the opportunity to learn how to socialize properly as children. But maybe I'm being too critical, idk.
This… I remember one of our neighbors finally letting their homeschooled kid go to public school and play with us. We had to teach him how to run. I remember my young mind being baffled by this. He was incredibly naïve and overly trusting so he got bullied mercilessly and beat up at recess. His mother did him no favors by being really nasty with us when we went over to take him fishing, exploring, etc. We moved away and i wonder what happened to him… he was a gentle soul.
