I think we had a misunderstanding. I never claimed retardation is the official term in DSM-V at this point.
I was trying to prove it’s different than low functioning autism since I (maybe wrongly) interpreted you thought they were the same thing.
Ngl, I didn’t even know “retardation” is not the official used term anymore, and you can call me an asshole or uneducated for that and that’s fine. I have no interest in researching what is the newest most official term for stuff. Also, saying “retarded” way shorter then saying “a person with developmental disability”. We all know what I mean by the word and we all know I don’t mean it in a derogatory way.
When that is your claim? Yes you do.
