You obviously have never been next to a 'developmentally disabled' individual when someone calls them mentally retarded... it's a slap in the face to them and these individuals find it hurtful, that's all i was saying...

i don't go out of my way to hurt ppl, so if using a broad term makes my clients more comfortable... then i'm gonna use it.
