Yeah, it's different for everyone.
My "counterfactual" is knowing a lot of kids that were home schooled. They were just young weird adults that didn't thrive in most circumstances. There's a reason why even rural agrarian societies found value is putting kids together.
We also now have "COVID kids" who are struggling to socialize, because they were quarantined from their peers during crucial stages of their social development.
