You're right, but you can homeschool your kids while still giving them ample time to socialize with their peers (in normal times/not during lockdown, obviously). Kids being forced to isolate and not socialize with other kids is an inherent problem with a forced lockdown, not with homeschooling. I'm certified to teach (quit after a short time in public school, which is what formed my current beliefs), and because of the experiences I've had, my fiancee and I will absolutely be homeschooling our kids, while using community-based programs and extracurricular activities for them to socialize and be around other kids. But their schooling and education will come directly from us/their parents
