What is your opinion on homeschooling?
I remember homeschooling used to be a super controversial subject but it seems like the idea of homeschooling has started to become more mainstream with more and more parents starting to homeschool their kids.
I myself had been homeschooled from Kindergarten through 12th grade; my brother and sister are being homeschooled as well. One thing a lot of people say is that homeschoolers have no friends or social life. That's a lie if I ever heard one. I've got tons of friends and go over to their houses regularly to hang out and play videogames. I've met them through church, meeting friends of friends, work and by doing extracurricular activities.
Currently, I'm enrolled at my local college; I'm on my third semester getting A's and B's. At first there was a small shock as I had to get used to the way college worked. I no longer got to lounge around doing my schoolwork in bed while watching youtube all day but I started to get used to it and I'm doing pretty good so far.
So what is your view on homeschooling; are you for it, against it, on the fence about it?
I'd like to hear what the Flood thinks.

I think it's better to socialise and make friends in regular school.
