I've known some home schoolers, and I think there are some stereotypes that are true, but I think they mostly apply to those home schooled for religious or political reasons. I would imagine those types are also not allowed to participate in sports and activites with public schooled kids.
One person I hired was exactly like that. He had a crush on another person I hired and went so far as to bring his parents to meet her. She detested him. And she was pretty "active". I think his parents would have locked him in a sealed room if they knew how much she had done and at such an early age.
