Socialization you could say is how a child interacts with their peers. There are many definitions, but in school, socialization mostly involves how children play and get along with each other. We think of recess when considering socialization. We wonder how much socialization children miss when they don’t get recess.
Public schools can go a long way towards bringing children together and socialization seems critical for society in general, but some parents don’t like socialization in public schools. They don’t believe it’s necessary for good schooling.
One of the criticisms of homeschooling is that children might not get opportunities to socialize, but most parents I know who home school work extra hard to get their children to interact with others. Some home schools create networks where students get to know others who learn mostly at home.
With current educational reforms there are concerns that children in public school don’t get to socialize like they should.
