The R-Word

In the world today many people use the word retarded to describe someone who is not as smart or to describe something that happened that they do not like. Most people say it freely and accept without thinking who it may hurt or what it does to society. Well let me tell you that the R-word is not acceptable and it hurts many people who are not gifted academically and it especially hurts those who are actually born with special needs such as cerebral palsy.

When you say this word and others words like it, the special needs community hurts and wonders if it will ever be accepted, so think before you act stop saying the R-Word it hurts people more than you know.
