Well, I've learned to never say never. 
"I'll never let my kids watch TV." "I'll never let my kids drink soda." Hah. For me, saying, "I'll never let my kids go to public school" is just daring the universe to throw something in our path that makes homeschooling not feasible. 
I can't see why homeschooling wouldn't work for us, but I'm open to that possiblity. Stranger things have happened. And if we're all miserable homeschooling, then yeah, I'd probably send the kids to school if they wanted.
I don't like the idea of public school, so I'd do everything in my power to accomdate my kids needs without sending them to school. But, hey, I can't control everything.
That said, I think kids in the early elementary years are too young to really make that decision. If they've never been to school, they most likely don't have any real idea of what it's actually like. Before I let them have a go, I'd try to let them observe what goes in school, and hopefully that'd get them to change their minds.
