I was not going to post further on this thread, but find the premise I think you are positing is a faulty one.
The sex and drugs behavior all too rampant on all too many campuses is hardly restricted to colleges. Thanks to “OuR Bill” the walking, talking Klintoon, oral sex is now commonplace in secondary schools.
Not forget, drugs, vaginal sex, and teachers pushing other varieties of sex best not detailed (my dinner is NOT beyond the point of no return) being all too common in middle schools, high schools, and even in some 5th and 6th grade classes.
An early teen told her mother that oral sex was normative on dates to the movies (middle school girl, remember!).
Why? According to the 13 year old niece, if you do that on the way to the movie, you can watch the movie without your date groping you all during the movie.
The uncle of that girl was Chief of the School Police Unit in a huge urban school system. I verified the story with “Da Chief”.
As a Jesuit once said, “Give me the child until the age of six, and I will not fear for the soul of the child thereafter.
With good parenting, the school need not fear any “ban influences” from the older children.
However, given the far better socialization, and more rapid maturation of home schooled students, she might inhibit some of the socialist and perverse tendencies of the other students.
The Horror! The Horror!

LOL ... that's got to be the funniest thing I've heard in a long time. Yeah, sure... a 13/14-year-old is going to inhibit some of the tendencies of those 18/19 to 24-year-olds ...
I don't know when the last time you were in college was, but I can assure you, no 18-24-year-old is going to inhibited by a 13-14-year-old ... :-)
I can think back to my own college and there would be a big yuk-yuk going on if any 13-14-year old was trying to say anything to someone 18-24 years old. Talk about a good way to give a kid like that an inferiority-complex would be to send them straight into a college environment with the types of attitudes that are there these days. It would be "smack-down-time" for a kid like that ...
There is always a risk though. No matter how strong that girl is and how grounded, after all is said and done, she is a girl, after all, and a minor. I would also say that some homeschooled kids are very naive in many ways. They are smart about academic matters but not street savy.
