What if there is no other option but homeschooling?

What helped you with socialization?

I personally did sports. I didn't really like it when I was younger (10-13), but I got pretty good when I was a bit older. The flexibility of being homeschooled allowed me to pursue being an athlete more thoroughly through my teenage years whilst not missing out on academics. Luckily my parents had the financial means to let me pursue that (being an athlete on a national team is expensive af). It was probably the single best space for me developing into a relatively well adjusted adult.

I wasn't homeschooled before age 10 or so, so caveat emptor with younger kids.
