If you were home schooled, how did you like it? (looking for students, not parents)

I am currently home schooled, enrolled in an online school. I love it because there are less distractions so it is easier to focus on my schoolwork. There actually isn't anything I dislike or would change about the school I am in. I'm only 15, so I can't get a job. I would have to say that, since you don't really get association with the other students, online schooling can affect your social skills.
But I really love my school and I am getting good grades.

1. the freedom to learn any topic and subject i wanted whenever i wanted, my mother was a single and worked full time so after the divorce at the age of 8 i was home schooled. it felt more like a home class though, my mother was depressed and lazy so i got the brunt of the house cleaning work. (also i was working two jobs by the time i was 14 so i had plenty of responsibility as an early teenager)

2.i didnt like the loneliness and the lack of a social network- i attended church events because i would make friends there... but i never got too involved with a network of friends.

3.i actually didnt do any work at all. just "life skills" i am pretty sure that if my mother was caught before my 18th birthday she would have gone to jail. i was unable to read until 12, and to this day i still have severe spelling competencies issues. (thank goodness for spell check!)

4.i got my GED at the age of 17 before deciding to go to school at SCAD-Atlanta it is a private school, but i am positive i would be able to get into a public state college if i needed too.

5. well since i have a ton of experience, and am very talented in various areas it has been very easy for me to find work- i am currently working for Apple and i love it!

6.define relationships? i didnt get my first kiss until i was 17. but that doesnt mean i missed out on anything i had a group of friends growing up well more like 3.. but hey- quality over quantity right!? we where thick as thieves- i dont think i would trade those memories for anything.

if you have any other questions feel free to ask!
