My wife home schools our girls, and there isn't one bit of isolation. These
girls are daily around other kids in the neighborhood. Somehow, they always
seem to draw a crowd. My wife and I are introverts. Not the kids. It must
have been a recessive gene or something :)

Home schooling isn't "right" or "wrong" in the Biblical sense that God laid
down a commandment somewhere. Do what's best for the child. They are each
unique. And the circumstances in their lives are constantly changing. What's
best will change over time.
