Do you believe that kids that do online learning never leave their home or have any friends? That's a pretty ignorant view. There are tons of opportunities for kids to have positive social interactions with peers as well as younger and older children, as well as adults. Being forced to interact with a handful of kids around their age in a public school is not a great way to socializing.
My kids are all homeschooled, including parent taught as well as online education, and have friends of different ages with caring parents that are all very involved. They have outside activities including, music, PE, play time with friends at the park, zoo trips, museums etc.
