i'm in seventh grade now, and when i was in sixth grade i broke my arm and was homeschooled. I loved it and it was a great time to bond with my teacher. I would'nt call homeschooled children anti-social, but you can get him involved in volunteering or any other classes like karate, soccer,etc. And its better because it's one on one and your child won't have any other distractions as far as disruptful students. And if he was being called names and being teased and that was making him depressed, i think it would be better for you to homeschool him. It would give him time to think about what he wants. Hope this helps!
