[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 604052, member: 1550"] I wish I had been homeschooled. It didn't exist back then. Going to school certainly did not help my social skills as I hung out with younger kids who also had poor social skills. And I learned nothing. I sat in the back of the class and got away with falling asleep sometimes. School was very hard for me unless somebody was next to me explaining the gaps I was missing. I could not listen to a lecture and concentrate enough to hear or understand the entire thing and I lost interest and stopped trying. I passed because my mom hired tutors for me and one-on-one was always very helpful for me so homeschooling would have been amazing. Kids without social skills usually make very poor choices in their friendships and have limited groups who will even accept them. The most accepting group of kids are the other misfits and assorted druggies and troubled souls. I did gain more social skills as I grew older, although I'm still and never will be that great in that department. [/QUOTE]
