And so I think we're speaking more towards the the fear and anxiety instead of
The myth.
Um
I think socialization is another big one.
I'm sure if you've talked about homeschooling, you've had to deal with this uh forever and ever.
And again, I I've met
not just homeschoolers but unschoolers who do have challenges with socialization because they're relatively isolated, because they don't have opportunities to make many friends, because their friends are online.
And so that is a real challenge.
But these kids still go on to higher education, they go on to get normal jobs.
I think that.
For me, after being in this unschooling world for more than a decade.
What I've seen is that
Unschooled kids don't face seriously different problems from other kids in their same socioeconomic demographic.
And so when people say, Oh my gosh, if I don't force my kid to learn math
right now or, you know, my kid
is essentially in in eighth grade and all these other kids are doing pre algebra and my kid won't touch pre algebra with a ten foot pole.
This idea that the kid will never be able to get into college.
That's something I've been pushing back against for a long time.
Because again, it's true, yes, there are unschoolers who don't know math.
When all these other kids know.
