Why do you think?! I've been homeschooled since 3rd grade (I skipped second cuz all the work was way too easy) but last year I went to public school. Everyone who found out that I was homeschooled was like "really?!" They never would have guessed it had I not told them. Unless they guessed by my 4.0 GPA and the fact that I'm a Christian. but there were a ton of other people just like me at school who had gone to public school siunce prekindergarten.
So what's the deal? How can people judge homeschooler's like all of them are alike? Is it because we spend more time around our parents? I don't. After school (which my mom just supervises, I pretty much teach myself) I'm out at classes, working, Junior Achievement, with friends, singing somewhere, shopping....everything. I probably spend more time out places than people who go to public school, because I only spend 3.5 hours on school every day and not 6 plus hours in a classroom.
WHY the stereotype?
