As a 28 yr-old homeschool grad with 3 home school grad siblings I find your comment somewhat near sighted. I will pull out my favorite example:
Before being home schooled my older sister was having a grand time in public junior high. Of my sibling she was the only one that did not want to stay home. Her goals in life at that time were to be a waitress and to make the cheer leading squad. Within less than a year of being home schooled her goal was to be an astronaut. After she graduated she went on to get an engineering degree at a top university (3 of the 4 of us are engineers now and the other is a veterinarian). She entered the marines and became one of their first female fighter pilots. While she had/has a great shot at pursuing becoming an astronaut she has since decided when she gets out of the corps she will start a family with her marine husband and homeschool them. Gee, it is a shame she did not get enough socialization...
