Yes, there are improper home schools just as there is improper public schooling. What I was trying to say earlier in the thread is that children are resilient, most of them anyway, and they do recover from both types of miseducation when it happens to them. The interaction thing, hehe, I get tired of answering that one, more precisely I get tired of answering it with a straight face. Let's just say it doesn't correspond to any of the homeschooled children I know. See answer to Mike, also.
I think what most people who trot that one out are missing is that the kids who go to public schools interact with other kids sure, but other kids who are all the same age. So they miss the perspective of realizing that it is only teeny boppers who like Manson, or whatever. My daughter's friends are not all thirteen.
