boy if I knew my previous comment was going to draw heat like that i would have used more descretion in my use of wording. the truth is that i am thankful the mentally ill (not a PC wording, but a commely used term) is now recieving much better treatment. a former state hospital employee myself I went through many hours of intensive training of the do's and dont's and the proper usage of this, that's and others. But the fact is still the same alot of the treatment in the old days was just the old term "strap em' down and dope them up"

Lynne is right.

My 14 year old daughter is MR and she is just like my other three kids she just learns at a slower rate. She attends special education for reading and math but goes into the regular classes for art, science and computer. All the kids in her regular classes treat her nice.
