I agree with William: The lack of socialization for home schooled kids is a myth. We home school our two kids, and they have many social outlets.
One thing not mentioned yet: The model of having 25-30 kids of almost exactly the same age in a room with one adult prepares kids for…nothing. Where else in life would you find yourself in such a situation? Certainly not work.
This California ruling is disturbing. I disagree with Ms. Jacobs; I believe this ruling is only the beginning of government intrusion into home schooling. I hope I’m wrong.
