I'm right with sweetpea -- I think "developmentally disabled" is a very good and respectful term for people who didn't develop mentally and physically as most of the world did. It's respectful to individuals, their families, the professionals who work for them, and there is no pejorative connotation attached. I also like the Real Pain to Real People priniciple that Sultana is talking about.
I managed three residential group homes for adults with developmental diabilities in the 90's.
