But don’t kids lose the social experience of going to school and making friends?

I homeschooled during the big lockdown, it was work! but very rewarding and my son caught up in his reading level *pats self on back haha

Based momma.

Definitely a benefit. I attended school and my parents gave us “mental health days” once a term and sometimes as requested.

I was never homeschooled, although retrospectively, I feel like I should have been.

For as long as I can remember, I've always been an "on my own terms" kind of person when it comes to learning.the subjects I want to learn.

Not to be offensive, but I've worked with and dealt with kids who were homeschooled. They act like they were locked in a bomb shelter and then released into the wild. They seem afraid and unsure how to socialize.
