I was homeschooled and will be homeschooling our kids (first one coming early January 2027!).
Game-changers for me growing up, that I think my parents did really well:
- change the curriculum to match the kid (i.e. learning styles, difficulty, pace)
- use the public schools for electives, sports, drama, etc (my siblings took music classes for 1 period each day, we all did school sports still, etc)
- have strict (or at least structured) time constraints on homeschooling (i.e. don't let it drag into the whole day; we had to be up, dressed, breakfasted, and ready to start at 9am, and we needed to be done by noon and didn't get lunch until our school work was done).

I was a camp counselor in my late teens and early 20s, and we could always tell which kids were homeschooled. Always.

In a positive or negative way?
