In that case...

Make sure your curriculum is secular. I'd hit up eBay for books. If you get Saxon math books and make your kids complete them, rather than stop 1/2 through, they'll be ahead of their peers.

Do you or your partner have an education background? That's key. My parents didn't, but my dad is basically Jared from the Pretender and channeled anything he needed to (especially high-concept math).

I was also pretty self-sufficient, which saved me.

My sister wasn't, and it really stunted her. She has issues she's still dealing with today (on top of being a goddamn millennial who was spoiled rotten by my folks).

Agree with Rausch on the social aspect. My parents made sure I had a variety of social outlets (travel baseball, home school support group, 4-H, Scouts, church group, etc). They let my sister do just one (dance), which also stunted her.
