How do you have them have social interactions with other children and adults? (Just curious since I believe it's extremely important).

Many people who homeschool their children also organize activities for their children either with other homeschool children, or with children from local schools (sports being a big one there).

Even so, this represents, very optimistically, a dozen or two hours of interaction with others a week. It cannot hold a candle to the interaction children going to schools experience.

Honestly, this is a lot easier than you can believe.

I can only speak for my family, but we spend lots of time with other families and children. Church, Boy Scouts, Soccer, etc.

Ask yourself, have you ever been in public and recognized a home schooler because of the way they act?

The inverse is true too, how many socially awkward people do you remember from your public schooling? I sure remember a lot.

From my personal experience, I don't see a relationship between home/public schooling and social relationships.
