I have never encountered a home schooled child that seem didn't seem to isolate themselves from other children. I admit they were very intelligent but were also very arrogant about their intelligence. Are these home schooled children be able to cope when they enter the real world?

My oldest 2 homeschooled kids wanted nothing to do with the Church's youth group when in high school. They are very much able to cope with the real world (the more mature adult world), they just wanted nothing to do with the imature teen scene.

They spent their teen years trying to be as successful as they could in their respective intrests. Both have well thought of reputations in the adult world and have acheived things that many adults are striving for in their carriers. This before they even start a carrier.

Sometimes it is hard to get past what is considered normal for a child and see where they are going with their education. The real world is not what is experienced in schools wierd social structures, that is just how we have become use to our kids acting.

I suspect that when they do start their "carriers", the will be very effective at projecting their power.
