    Homeschooled adolescents may have lower substance use rates than non-homeschooled adolescents. A study using data from the 2002-2013 National Survey on Drug Use and Health found that homeschooled adolescents aged 12-17 had lower rates of past-year tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana use. The number of homeschooled students in the United States has grown significantly from 13,000 in the 1970s to over 2 million in 2015, with an estimated annual growth rate of 2-8%. An increasing percentage of parents and caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorder are also choosing to homeschool.

    Substance Use and Mental Health in Homeschooled

    Adolescents in the United States


    Point: Avoid bad influences from the external environment
    Homeschooled adolescents may have lower substance use rates. Vaughn et al. [3] found that
    homeschooled adolescents (aged 12e17 years) had lower rates of past-year tobacco, alcohol, and
    marijuana use than nonhomeschooled adolescents, using the 2002e2013 National Survey on Drug Use
    and Health (NSDUH).

    For kid with deseases

    It is estimated that there were only 13,000 students who were homeschooled in the 1970s, and there
    were over 2 million in 2015 - approximate 2-8% growth per year (Ray, 2013; Ray, 2015; Ray, 2016). The
    percentage of parents/caregivers of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) choosing to
    homeschool has increased as well.
