i was homeschooled and i could never recommend it. i was isolated from unbiased third parties who may have helped me navigate abuse at home, and suffered thru undiagnosed learning disabilities bc my parents were not trained to spot signs nor did they care. i am still struggling with interpersonal relationships at over 30 due to highly curated social environments and have extreme social anxiety.
a lot of homeschool curriculum are christian nationalist propaganda as well, and are very expensive. same goes for homeschool groups. there is an anti-intellectual stigma attached to homeschooling that in my experience is completely warranted.
