You probably don’t know the backgrounds of the people around you. Homeschooled adults are about 3% of the population, test at parity or above, attend college and don’t have an unusual unemployment rate. At some point that starts to look like normal.

I do see that some homeschooled adults are more comfortable doing their own thing, similar to Montessori-educated adults, and some people find having interesting hobbies and jobs upsetting, but we need a few more people like that!
