re: Home school benefits?

There are students who do not adapt socially or in the life the skill areas while attending public or private school

True. But, as they grow with their peers and are basically forced to interact daily, they break those layers down and they start to grow in that department.

There are many ways for students to develop these skills while being home schooled.

And there are ten times that amount of ways with a child going to school.

I agree with you that you shouldn't speculate and just automatically assume that little Johnny being homeschooled means he's gonna be socially awkward with no questions asked. But to totally poo poo on the leg up with benefits of social development in going to school vs home school is just silly. It's so silly that it's almost not even debatable.

I would say a benefit of home school is your child probably will be healthier all year round because they won't pick up a cold or the flu or pink eye or whatever.
