Playground fights and childhood bonding at lunch time are hardly essentials for healthy development and social skills. Most of the really intelligent people I know were quite solitary as children.

your intelligence level is not determined by what sort of school you go to or if you like to be a loner or not. and yes, romping around the school yard *is* important social skills. so is working in a classroom with other students. Working on group projects and helping eachother out on their studies is prepping them for the workplace. Not to mention it will get them used to the idea of complete strangers telling them what to do.

I've never seen any proof for the claim that homeschoolers end up socially deficient. It's just mindless rhetoric.

and I doubt you have seen any proof otherwise too. If it was all figured out you wouldnt have started this thread in the form of a question.
