I’m just throwing my 2 ¢ into the ring. Sky if it’s not your feelings of the word, what exactly offends you about this? As stated the term mentally retarded has a specific set of criteria recognized by all states and medical personal. Perhaps it’s archaic but I agree with deliquesce, if we changed the terminology to suit the current political correctness it would lead to mass confusion. I think we’ve all learned that vague is bad when it comes to legislation.
Pathological would not have come to mind while considering your mindset on this topic, but I am curious to hear what you think is more appropriate lingo in this situation.
