“Despite being autistic, Nathan is integrated with all kindergartners at Taylor Elementary.”

Big mistake. Retards and nutcases do NOT belong with normal kids.>>>>>>>

You know, while in some ways I do agree, I do not agree with calling those with mental retardation ‘retards’. I have a child with mental retardation, being called a ‘retard’ is an insult and has been for many many years. I do hope that you never have to face the reality that life can throw any of us a child or family member that becomes mentally retarded or emotionally unstable. But life being what it is, you are no more protected from that fate then I. Have a nice day.

The way I see it when people speak this way they are displaying their own level of intelligence.
