What about socialization?

Unless you intend to lock your children in the house and never take them out this wont be a problem. Schools make it seem important because this is all they ever promise to dosocialize your children. The difference is at home you can choose who your children mix with. School is the only place that people are forced to mix with other people they have nothing in common with and the only place they are put together with people all the same age as themselves. The truth is that you learn from older people and teach those younger than yourself. (This is a description of a family.) There are many activities in the community your children can become involved in and we found that we didnt have trouble getting children into our house, just getting them out. Children liked to be at our house because there was a lot to do.
