True, they have not had the social interaction they would have had in public school.

I always ask, when someone brings this up, "Can you give me an example of positive peer pressure that might happen in a public school?"

Your kids are much better off without this "social interaction" because they will be used to dealing with adults instead of with immature people. Some of these people never grow up and thus become Democrats.

To be sure: they ARE better off without this social interaction. I've seen what they are missing and I am eternally grateful. We are older than the usual parents. All I see "parents" do, these days, is indulge and excuse. Mostly, they ignore what their kids are doing, and when something goes wrong--as it almost always does--they blow it off as "kid stuff." Their children learn nothing either in school or out of school.
