RE: HomeEdders Fortnightly Challenge; That Socialising Question.

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

As one of the children that do homeschooling I don’t know what answers are given to these types of questions by my teacher/mother @freemotherearth. I feel that the socialization that most kids get is not that great because the only people you see in public schools are the ones in your area, the chances that the other kids in your area have similar mindsets or interests only go so high. For my socialization I go to boy scouts. In doing so I am finding other boys with similar interests rather than just being around random kids in my area. It is out of the way to do so sometimes but it is worth it in my opinion. I think people worry about homeschooling children not getting enough socialization is because from a public schooling outlook at homeschooling it seems like there is none because the only socialization they think of is going to public school. Another way I get socialization is through a youth action group for the environment that my sister @cassidydawn, a couple of friends and I put together to help the environment. The name of the action group is Kids With Pinecones or KWP.

Thanks for reading and happy steeming

Steemager participation is AMAZING!!!! Great to read your perspective @aurynthenorse. I definitely consider a lot of things part of your socialization, but the homeschool experience is ultimately yours more than mine. I am so glad you decided to join scouts ~ they have added an entire sphere of influence and understanding to the world for you. Great post!
