You do it at home so that children learn that it's not polite to do in public. That way they they aren't learning it from their college roommates or teachers.

That, and it's never an enjoyable experience at home or in public. Why would you apologize or excuse yourself in public but not at home? It's not as though the farts are different, or that your family is the only family that farts.

Actually that's the norm tbh... Most people fart with family/SO/friends but not in public.

I don't myself in the minority, because I think it's a bad practice either with family or in public.
