When you were posting as a male.

And the kid in public school that thinks they are a cat isn't super weird?
I think people speak anecdotally when they say homeschool kids are weird because they've met a much higher % of weird homeschool kids than non-homeschool kids in their life. I think in aggregate, it can be said this is likely true overall, but not across the board.
You aren't guaranteed to be great at football if you're a 5* recruit, but the chances are a lot higher
All that to be said, there are some very normal ones I'm sure. I think it really goes back to the parents most of the time. I think weird parents or hyper religious (which most people think is weird) are more likely to homeschool kids.

that’s weird, no doubt. but there are weirdos in every single grouping of people.
my wife teaches a coworker’s daughter who in 7th grade hasn’t “decided on a gender or a name” and hasn’t spoken a single word in class since school started. The Mom confided to my wife that she also doesn’t have a single IRL friend and only has friend’s via Discord she’s never met. That’s pretty fricking weird behavior and this is at a good public school in a good Texas school district.
there’s a lot of weird kids in public school. now and there always has been.

From what I've seen, home school is either something that is done super well or something that borders on child neglect. There isn't much middle ground.
Kudos to those who are able to do it well, because it's literally a full-time job.

They have difficulty understanding how a guy with a dick and balls could be called a "woman"?

Yet the kids you read about being starved and locked in cages are exclusively home schooled.

The lack of socialization is a far bigger challenge to overcome than any far left teacher.

From what I understand, it's not a full time job. About an hour of actual instruction a day is equivalent to what a kid gets in an average day at public school, on the elementary and middle school levels. In modern times, with technology and a million times more homeschooling resources, it really isn't that hard.

Our anecdotal evidence is posting in this thread and I'll go with the latter there.

We have some homeschooled girl who has been trying for years to be part of my high school graduating class. She attends all the reunions and everything. Weird is an understatement.
I honestly feel sorry for her, because she was clearly starved for peers by her parents.

I mean this sincerely. Does she have friends and a social life? If so, how? "Colleagues"?
Works every day and studies presumably on nights and weekends.
So, in a post where the first sentence is "my kid has a friend..." you ask if this kid has friends? lol
School can be accomplished in such a short amount of time, it is ridiculous. I miss the days during covid when we could travel and kids could knock out work wherever we were.
This girl does indeed participate in extra-curricular activities.

You lost all of your momentum when you mentioned Tebow. If he's super weird, the world needs more super weird people.
