Indeed, home schooling is not for everyone. Personally, I loved it. My sister did not.
I was more worried in a public school setting, about quite literally surviving the day than anything else. It came as something of a shock when I discovered that kids in the co-op were NOT, in fact, out to kill me.
I will assent that home school didn't really prepare me for dealing with the jerks of the world. Then again, I'm not sure middle school/high school is the place to learn how to deal with people who are ultimately out to take advantage or hurt you in some way. I'm not a parent, so I'm not sure what age IS appropriate.
