What about careers other than software development though? I'm definitely not criticizing your choices at all, but its interesting to me that both your brother and yourself ended up doing software development.

Do you feel you would have a different option of "unschooling" if you had tried to be successful in a different career path?

Or even software in the next few years/decades when regulations catch up and having a 16 year old do contract work becomes too large a liability.

I was home schooled 1-6th grade, then went to Junior High. I was WAYYYYYY ahead. I think most home school kids are at least a grade ahead.
