I homeschooled my son until he entered 7th grade. It was the best gift I have ever given him. I don’t know how much experience the other posters on this thread have had with homeschooled kids, but based on some of their comments, my guess would be not much. My son is one of the most social creatures I have ever encountered and he had absolutely no problems adjusting to “regular school.” In fact, I have only received positive reports from his teachers since he started school last year.
Lakewoodwife, I would be happy to discuss my experiences with you and answer any of your questions privately.
