RE: How my Homeschoolers Socialise
What I recall from college, is that many of my homeschooled mates, were actually very confident and had a healthy eccentricity. I thought it was admirable. They seemed well adapted (more than other who had gone through regular schooling.
I agree with you. Socialising is so much more of a human thing than anything to do with school.
It's interesting that you say eccentricity. I wonder if this comes from having no pressure to conform to perceived social etiquette you might get in a school environment.

General schooling can be tough for many kids. I was certainly not a good student and the social pressures I think eroded at the personality of the individual. I would say that they (homeschoolers) mostly had a healthy self esteem and confidence in their skills.
Yes, I think just not having typical social mold makes them unique.
