    I was also homeschooled, but not exclusively (we moved school districts a bit and some of them were awful). I know I missed enough to have some social impairments and anxieties, and there’s a lot I don’t know about people and what I had to learn was hard. But I also think maybe I’m also undiagnosed in some things that makes that harder anyway.

    But what I really wanted to ask is: even though we had to learn what we did in a less intuitive way later in life, I still feel like I learned more academically than most public school kids I knew, and I also knew how to learn better than other people, even today. Is this something you would agree with about yourself, or do you feel it was a net negative on your development for you to be homeschooled?
