What about their "social life"?

I have heard many times, "What about their social life"?  What about it?  Do I want my children learning from their peers?  Do I want my children learning about the facts of life through children?  Do I want my children to be exposed to foul language and dirty talk at a young age?  NO!  Now days "social" life can either make or break a child.  I don't want the evil of this world to influence my children.  I don't want my children learning disrespect or unkindness from bully's or rude children.  
While attending school when I was a young girl I dealt with rude children.  Bully's to be exact.  Children are rude!  A child's whole life could be ruined if adults/parents don't step in and stop bullying.  I feel like my parents saved my life when they brought me home from school.  My life could have been so much different than the way it turned out.  My social life while I was in school was horrible!  I was shy and got bullied by rude children.
It is true I didn't have many friends when I was young and after being home taught.  But when I was in school I had only a handful of friends, if any.  School did nothing for my social life.

Home schooled children aren't always just home with their mothers and siblings.  They have other HS friends who they get together with to learn and to play.  Some HS children also socialize with PS children, through other after school activities such as sports, scouts, church functions and activities.

Social lives for home schooled children can be better than some public schooled children at times.
