Home schooling in CA

My sister homeschools. My nieces are currently 10 & 13. They started off at a Christian school, run by their church. There were a lot of problems, so L pulled them out to teach them at home. The younger one is currently doing 5th & 6th grade work, the older one is doing 7th grade work. While L keeps them busy, there are a lot of activities that they are into, I don't totally approve.

They go to a school setting for certain things during the week. They do the science fairs and the speech competitions.

They have no real concept of the Real World. All of their socialization comes from their small circle of home schooled, church based kids, just like them. I worry about them when they finally do get to join the RW. They will go into culture shock. They are extremly sheltered.
