Would you ever consider homeschooling your children?

The advantages of home schooling is the ability to provide that one on one individual attention but to me it is taking away from that interaction with others and limits social skills.
However, in some situations it can't be helped and if it is needed it must be done.

I have need to work that is why my children are in public school. Home schooling is fantastic, you will have a smarter child on your hands minus the bs that public schooling can bring such as, too many kids in the class which results in constant distractions, teachers passing your child on when in fact the child does not have the basics down, promoting failure by pushing too much responsibility on the much younger child who is NOT prepared for it. It is sink or swim and if you don't realize that your child is struggling and help the child's school career is doomed.
The homeschooling parent needs to arrange for the child to interact with others thru programs in their area. It can be done.
