I love Jennifer Aniston, but I sure wish people would understand how painful it is to those who love someone with developmental problems, to hear “retard” used to mean stupid. It is also very hurtful for those who have a developmental problem. Take it from a mother who knows.

you do understand the word “retard” does mean slow, and can be used in different context’s, now if I walked up to someone who is retarded and called them a retard, that that would be wrong, but to used the word “retard” is not wrong just depend on the context.
