HS'ers do learn to deal with people. When my dd was confronted by a bully at Family Camp she calmy told him "If you think you are better than us than maybe you should play by yourself." and went about her business.

By hanging out with homeschoolers and people of all ages. I completely agree with what you have written about socialization, or socializing. HS’ers do learn to deal with people.
