Schools do better than home schooling. Those kids constantly do great on tests but it doesn't take long to figure out they are lacking socially.
I don't know how to teach socialization other than kids figure it out, but I'm open to the idea.
Homeschooled kids can socialize outside of homeschool and be perfectly well-adjusted. There's something to be said for avoiding the hierarchical social structure present in schools.
Some of those kids are lacking socially. It's not 100% by any means. The thing is that if you are home schooling your kids, you have to be intentional about socializing them in a way that you simply don't have to if you have them in a formal school setting. Obviously, some parents are going to fail at that but not all will.
Not 100% is claimed often, but I have personally never seen an exception.
Maybe some exist but I don't know of any
Well the thing is if youre home schooling it's really easy to just never have your kid interact with someone they dont get along with. Thats the most important part of the socialization though. If you dont put effort into making your kids life a little uncomfortable Im not sure how theyll gain those skills.
