Hi Peanut Mom. Welcome!
My daughter also did the lining things up and organizing thing....but with her stuffed animals, no diapers, LOL!
Both of my girls have done the dumbing themselves down thing also.
Currently, we are taking advantage of our state's allowance of part time homeschooling. The benefit is that I know that at least a part of every day they are working at their natural learning level and not feeling bad about it. So they also get to go to school for specials and lunch/recess. It's working pretty well.
The only drawback I see is that they seem to compartmentalize school vs. home. Home, being the place they work to their potential and school, where they play. We also had a few rough bumps with the teachers.
There are so many caring parents here who have worked out all kinds of situations to accomodate the way their children learn. I'm sure you'll find lots of support here.
