Yeah, we used to get the "socalization" thing thrown in our faces all the time.
Most of what goes on in public schools (and a good many private ones, too) isn't socialization, it's what I call "being absorbed into the mob".
My 4 (former) homeschool kids have social skills that have made them favorites with their teachers and classmates.
That "socialization" argument is like throwing your gun at the enemy when you have no more bullets left.

In the last thread like this in which I participated, the pro-teacher advocate in the discussion demonstrated his superior social skills by calling homeschoolers geeks, more or less.

I was duly impressed, and took notes. =/
