Jim, homeschool students do interact with other children. In this area, and in NY and LA that I know of, they go to activities at Homeschool coops, where the ever growing number of parents get to gather each week and the children do activities. Most homeschool students are also active in local 4H clubs, as well as church groups and others. My daughter, for instance, played clarinet in the homeschool band a few years. I understand what you are saying, Jim. Your point isn't lost, and appears to be far more sincere than the original post, but, with homeschool growing as much as it is, children have just as many activities as the public school system provides, relatively speaking.
The reason that homeschooling has become such a hot button issue is that since it has exploded in numbers over the last couple decades, there are enough examples to compare the public schools to. This means that as schools fight to get more money, a more productive option is now in plain view to contrast the public school system. Traditionally, public schools could argue that because the budgets of private schools and church schools were higher, the public schools couldn't be held to those same academic standards. Today homeschoolers are producing better academic standards, and more alarming to public school advocates, they are doing it on a comparatively shoestring budget.
