If you’ve ever met a true homeschooled kid, you know a lot of them are… odd. A lifetime away from other kids means they don’t understand any references to culture, they make weird jokes, and probably still dress like a little kid at 35.

The Radical Unschooling Facebook Group is full of panicky posts from parents about how their kids can’t read. They insist on letting their kids “follow their own path,” which is mainly just watching YouTube all day.
