#22 Keeping your social circle too small
It can be easy to fall into always spending time with a specific small group of families when you homeschool. But there are two problems with that-- the first is that you can end up depending on these families so much that you have trouble pulling away if the kids grow apart, and the second is that you miss out on the broader perspective you might get from spending time with a larger group.
Having a dynamic network of friends can bring fresh perspectives and new ideas to your homeschool. It also gives your kids the opportunity to practice the social skills involved in meeting new people.
