Isolation and socialization is sometimes hard for homeschooled children. It is hard for homeschoolers to have friends because they do not attend public or private school with people their own age, they might be with their brother/sister or by theirselves most of the time. They do not have the opportunity to socialize with kids their own age at school and make new friends each and everyday. They have to meet their friends at church, playground/park, and etc. Sometimes homeschoolers are different in making friends because, they are isolated at their house and learning by theirselves usually with their parents. Sometimes you will see the kid playing by theirselves or have imaginary kids because they do not get the chance to make friends or know how to make friends being isolated being homeschooled. They are not aloud to be on sports team at school, so the only way they can play sports is travel ball or recreational ball. They are not even able to be on teams such as quizbowl and etc or being in the band. They are not aloud to do a lot of events at schools and make friends. Isolation and socialization is a very hard aspect for those children to face and hard for them to make friends.
