Home schooling is not lockdown schooling. My daughter in fact has even more friends than when she was in public school. We outsource part of her education to private instructional centers, we participate in a homeschool co-op where parents teach each others kids in areas in which they are competent, homeschooler activity groups for park day/beach day, game night, dances and Girl Scouts. There is various overlap of kids across that spectrum. IMO the “socialization” narrative about home schooling is utterly false and what I would characterize as “Homeschool Hatred”.

Thanks for the reply. To clarify I’m not a homeschool hater, rather I have started thinking about it for kid and am in the early research phase. Part of the research is evaluating between the online schools and homeschooling.

Normally I may not have thought about it, but post pandemic I’m thinking why not.

My apology, I did not intend to label you that way; I had a feeling it may be received that way but I felt I was clear that the narrative was the subject of that sentence.

My suggestion, search for homeschool activity groups in your locality. Contact someone in one of the groups and have a conversation. Good luck.

No worries, I had not taken your comment to be directed at me - still just wanted to clarify.

It's all good and thanks for the info, appreciate it!!
