I was also homeschooled, and it turned out pretty well for me, but knew people who had negative experiences. I think the main pro and con of homeschooling is that the parents have full control. As a parent, you can help your child advance beyond the academics of normal schooling, but you are also responsible for a holistic upbringing that includes social activities. Luckily in my area, there were a lot of homeschooled kids who got together a good bit, and later on in high school, I got a job that exposed me to a lot of the other things in life.
