Wow, you truly are delusional. If you think there is no social aspect to schools then i'm wasting my keystrokes. Read up on what modern families look like, rarely (except for immigrant families mostly) are they 'extended'.

I'm replying to the parent comment that stated online and virtual learning are superior to attending schools. It was implied the ONLY purpose of school is to ascertain knowledge when that's merely one (small) aspect.

"Schools, in fact, prevent socialization" is maybe one of the most divorced from reality statements I've ever read on HN.

Good luck on your future journey. Edit: Created 20 days ago explains everything

You say this in a country that has a fairly sizable immigrant population. And you don't have to live in the same house to be able to visit grandma on the other side of town.
