lol- my son is so social without social environments, so he will have no problem with homeschooling.
He is a talker and not a listener, so I think that it all depends on your child's personality.
My son would learn more on a hands-on, one-on-one learning system more than a social environment where peer pressure and cliques are surrounding him.
like I said in my previous post, I can enroll him in other activities (sports/boy scouts/young life/martial arts to keep him active and give him a social life without so much focus on the peer pressure and cliques. He is very independent and learns much more when given individual attention.
But to children who are not so social or really listen well, they will excel in a public school and not be too bothered by the whole atmosphere. Just something to think about as your child grows, you will be able to tell how your child will do, depending on their skills and personality. Public school is good for some kids, homeschool is good for others. Nothing wrong with either of them, I just want to be able to have my son learn at his pace and according to his personality. He is a lot like me and learns more by visual and personal interactions.
