I got plenty. I have a brother and three sisters. Also 13 cousins. I am glad that I was homeschooled as I also was given the opportunity to socialize with people outside my age group. I feel much more comfortable with most people than many of my friends that were not homeschooled. I plan to homeschool my kids.

Because some don't. Most do though. I'm going to homeschool my kids....but making sure they are also in other activities for socialization. I have a nephew who didn't have alot of social contacts as a homeschooler and resents it. It's different for everyone!
Pancakes........thats funny considering that a majority of homeschoolers are parented by liberals! They are the ones that buck the system. LOL

becuase they are dumb, to put it bluntly. look at some of the stupid comments some of the people left on here... homeschooled kids are some of the most socialized people out there. you meet alot of public, or otherwise, schooled kids and a good portion of them dont have a clue in the world how to truely relate to other people. they dont know what it means to have true friends, and be true friends. all they freakin care about is the new movie that is out, or in the more disgusting cases(which there happen to be many) how many girls a guy *had*. I dont know about you all, but i have better things to do then, talk dirty sex talk all the freakin time. if thats what socialization means, i sure dont want to be part of that kinda junk.

It's not that they don't get ANY "socialization", it's just that most will lack "real world" socialization, meaning, learning how to survive in larger-groups of peers, dealing with peer pressure, etc., which lessons are actually valuable later on in adulthood when one must "enter the real world" and deal with people of all different temperments, classes, types, genders, sexualities, races, religions, backgrounds and cultures.... These lessons seem best learned in a large-group setting such as in a public school system, and best learned when young. Teaches coping skills and adaptibility you just don't learn as well in a home-school situation. School years are not just about academic education. It's also about social education, and that is vitally important (just as important, if not more so) than academics, when it comes to how to cope with life.

May be because
1. they don't have many friends like they who go to school.
2. they only learn from what they parents teach them
But,
1. family is the smallest socialization.
2. They still have friends at their neighborhood.
3. They parents could take them to many places.
So, it is false if you think that children who are homeschooled don't get any socialization, because they could get something more, while others learn at school.

Because, it's an argument against homeschooling that is difficult to disprove and looks logical. As such, it's valuable in school politics because most of the people hearing such arguments are likely to take the easier route and agree with the statement without doing research of their own.

Well they don't get as much as kids in school, because they never experience what kids in the school system experience. They don't have bullies and various cliques and lunchtime and all those things that most kids do experience in growing up. Sure you can have them go do activities with other kids of the same type, but it will never really be on the same level as going to a real school.

Because it is a fact!
People that home school their kids are neglecting them by depriving them of social interaction with their peers.

Because everyone thinks that in order to be "socialized" they must be in a government run school system.

Some of them just stay home and never go out and they don't have friends because they never got out to talk with different people. Just my opinion
