I do attend park days and swimming days so he does have some boys to play with regularly! I ((love)) the whole "socialization" thing with non-homeschoolers! Ha! I usually ask what they mean by being social. Are they asking how my kids will learn social skills? If so, I don't want them learning social skills from their peers. I want them learning from me. If they mean having friends, I explain that my kids do interact with other kids very regularly but I want their friends to be eachother, first and foremost. Is socialization why we send our kids to school? I thought it was to learn??? Hmmmmm. So funny to me that people get hung up on this all the time.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01964606333674611845noreply@blogger.com
