I have 17 nieces and nephews, 6 of that group were homeschooled for most of their lives then thrown into modern sociality after that. Their Parents and Church were always there for them and preached/taught following Gods will. They were taught Morals and how they should behave outside of the home. These 6 individuals have had an extremely hard time being reintroduced into society after home schooling. Ironically, the oldest ones have had the most issues in life because they were home schooled the most and the youngest has had the least amount of problems because they were introduced into a school system in middle school.

Don't get me wrong, these kids are very smart and my sister did an amazing job of teaching them core classes but you can't teach real interaction in that environment. Although they interacted with people of their church on the weekends, they never dealt with adversity or temptation at a young age. They were taught to avoid it and denounce it but when it came down to real life, they had lots of trouble doing so due to so little real World practice.

After seeing first hand the outcome of home schooling, I do not see it as a smart choice. I went to a catholic school from K-12 and was taught the same things as my nieces and nephews, only difference is that I was able to practice what was preached to me and learned to stand up for what I was taught. My Nieces and Nephews never had that privilege and were blindsided by the real world when introduced to it.

P.S. They are all over 25 yrs old now and doing well, but it was a hard and bumpy ride for their youth.
