“The home-school environment prepares children for the ‘real world’ better than identification with age-segregated peer groups. After all, the typical workplace contains a number of different ages and abilities, not a single peer group.” -Susan Wise Bauer and Jessie Wise
[People with no experience of homeschooling or know no homeschooling families tend to be overly concerned with socialization of homeschoolers. Even people who I consider to have been poorly homeschooled have had fine socialization. In fact, there is only one family that I knew that poorly socialized their children, and that seemed to be out of fear for how the world would poison their children's lives.]
