Funny thing actually
I'd love to see the depression and anxiety rates of those who were homeschooled vs public school vs private school
IDK maybe there's no relation, I'm just spitballing here, but that would certainly be interesting to see
I actually looked up a subreddit /r/homeschooled thinking there might be horror stories, but nope, couldn't find anything.

WHAT??? That can't be right, I know many people from my co-op days who hated being homeschooled. I disliked only the social aspect. Perhaps is different outside of the religious community tho
But yes in general sometimes parents decide to homeschool because they're very controlling and borderline emotionally abusive, which thankfully hasn't been my experience (to my knowledge; if you're raised with something in isolation you tend to think it's normal, y'know?) but that's certainly been the experience with some of my siblings' friends IIRC
@HedgeFundWizard Fair. It's good to think about such things in case you get one tho, so props to you on getting the jump on that
I just found r/HomeschoolRecovery, perhaps that would be more of what you're looking for

I'd add that IDK what the rate of positive experiences to negative experiences exists among those who are homeschooled, but you might appreciate reading this.
