Hi Blissful and Welcome to PC. Glad you found us.

I cant really speak from personal experience about being home schooled but my two younger step sisters were. I think it had it's benefits and it's drawbacks. However, my father thought that since they were being home schooled social interaction was very important as they were not getting it like a normal high schooler was. There were groups in the area for children that were home schooled. These groups would get together a few times a week and hang out. This was good for my sisters. They made some really great friends through this group. Just an idea. Talk with your mother and tell her how you are feeling. Ask her to do some research on home schooled kids in your area. Home schooling is very popular these days so I am sure there are tons of kids out there just like you...in need of interaction with their peers.
I wish you luck and please keep us posted on this.
