an adult in normal conversation used the word "stupid", -as in "well, that was 'stupid'.

The brilliant three-year boy old immediately shouted "that is a BAD WORD, Grandpa" at the adult.

Perhaps what is more significant is the fact that the three-year-old has now been taught and manipulated to grow up believing -that the word 'STUPID' is not to be used.
He does not know why.

Three-year-old children are not expected to be the keepers of the English language.

Children are the 'taught'. They join the 'manipulated' at a frightening rate.

It is an obscenity that the same 'taught' children will graduate from high school and then university as lawyers and say "there are less offenders in court" and "there are less visitors at the zoo today".

How about "there is 'fewer peanut butter' in the jar, Mom?"
How 'stupid' is that?
How 'retarded' is that?

Why not allow total aberration of the complete English language while we are at it?

With absolute and major failures in the educational system blatantly obvious, the word "Stupid" is now classified arbitrarily by a 'feel-good Manipulator of Society' -as discriminatory. How extraordinary and timely to observe an unprovoked attack upon the very basis of civilization-the spoken word.

In fact, and with good reason, it is very clear that the word 'retard' is no more discriminatory than the word 'stupid' is already INCORRECTLY perceived to be.
