What about the Socialization?

The Scottish Enlightenment philosopher George Turnbull wrote
in the eighteenth century that the debate between home education and formal
schooling has raged since ancient (Greek) times.
Shakespeare took up the same
theme in The Two Gentlemen of Verona.
The Gentleman Valentine begins the play by noting:
Home-keeping youth have ever homely
wits....
I rather would entreat thy company
To see the wonders of the world abroad
Than, living dully sluggardized at home...
Translated into modern words, Mr. Valentine worries:
"But
what about their socialization?"
