acs,
I think that a lot of us who are geeky introverts who do homeschooling find that being around our own kids 24/7 brings out our social side. When I drop our kids off for dance class, I usually try to stick around just to have some other adults to talk to for an hour. In fact, some of the other parents have remarked on what an outgoing, talkative guy I am � which is pretty funny considering that I really am a very introverted geek (you don�t get much more geeky than male theoretical physicists!).
I do prefer seeing others outside the house just so I don�t have to straighten up everything around the home � homeschooling does tend to make a mess of one�s house (not that I would be very good at housework in any case).
