In reply to Nita. I know what you mean Nita! I know a lot of moms who put their kids back into school for high school because they think they can't teach it, but those are some of the hardest years socially in school. I totally agree that we are all learning social skills/cues every time we do something new. Every job, etc. has its own unique culture. Thanks for stopping by and sharing!

I’ve taken my kids out of traditional public schools because I don’t like the ‘socialization’ going on there, lol! But yes, there is a difference between being homeschooled and not. There is a slight delay in picking up the ‘social cues’ other kids find or figure out in public or private schools. But if kids have to go into those environments they figure it out. Everytime I start a new job, I have to figure people out, what works, etc.
