Many of them are not so badly infirmed, how's that for a term, that they actually live in the public eye. I have a niece who is MR and she lives at home with her mother. She works, pays taxes, and becomes involved in many of the same activities as you or I do. You think MR are bad, try autistic. They most of the time have no clue which end is up, and if you change one thing about their lives, they lash out.
Just for the record I happen to be autistic. ;) Moll.
