My brother's soon-to-be ex-wife is a school administrator who taught in three different states, and when we discussed this subject, she said that her district had had to adopt special policies for homeschooling children reentering public school, because by the high school years they were typically three to four years behind grade level in reading and math skills, let alone every other subject. Their parents just weren't doing the job. I compiled a thick binder for her full of the expert commentary against homeschooling and articles about the seldom covered dark side. Best guess: for every homeschooled academic success like those we hear about in the media, there are 10 like these girls who are at best victims of educational neglect and will never attain the academic level they would routinely have been expected to achieve in a real school.

It took me a long time to recover and I didn't really recover from this and other stuff my parents, mother especially, did until I had moved out of the house and lived on my own for a period of time, only getting to something that resembles normal when I was able to move to a city far away from them and not go back.

It wasn't home schooling but catholic elementary and over sheltering but the rest I'm right there with you.
