- shkkmo 11y agoExcept for "lame" in a formal context is still a relevant term. I can't remember the last time I heard "retarded" used with the intention of referring to a developmentally disabled kids. Whenever I do hear that usage, I do point out to those people that the term when used that way is offensive and they should stop using it that way.
