I found this on my friend Kim's blog who got it off another home schooling mom's blog. The direct link to the article is here.
It is amazing how many people think because you home school that your children are deprived of socializing with other kids. With being a home school parent and having friends that have children in the public school system it is amazes me the difference in how the children act. Yes that is one of the reasons we home school. People are still in the dark ages in their thinking that just because a child is home schooled they do not socialize with others. This lady who wrote this article hit the nail right on the head why some of choose to home school.
