*develop a greater ability and discipline to be self-taught
*develop a greater reliance on logic than on "because the teacher says so"
*education does not end with a diploma
*less desire to "fit in"
*greater ability to be self-employed as an adult
*vote at a rate three times the rate of those educated in public school
*superior knowledge of the Bible
*lack of guile and discomfort with lying
*object of scorn by those trained in formal school, but no reciprocal animosity<ref>See, e.g., [[Mystery:Did McClellan Scorn Lincoln Because He Was Homeschooled?]]
