answer:The cons to that would be lack of peer interaction, which might make them awkward in social settings around other kids. No Intramural sports. Maybe limited access to lab setups, etc. Deadlines and tighter structure to batter teach how to handle pressure. However, more distractions, phone, pets, media, siblings, etc. This is an old stereotype of homeschooling that should go the way of the dodo. Tons of homeschooled kids take part in social activities, often with other homeschool kids, and sometimes more often and of more variety than public schooled kids.
