The word is fine... I use it all the time. This area is full of a bunch of woke freaks.


The word hasn't been fine for years.

Ooh you’re so edgy for being an ignorant POS. You must be so proud.


Proud of being wealthy and athletic...kids are in private by the way.


Good! Maybe there is hope for them then that they'll learn how to be better humans than you.

Lol wealthy people don't go around bragging about it, but nice try. Also, if your kids arent in MCPS, don't you have anything better to do than stalk MCPS forums? So pathetic.

Just about the worst name you can call someone.


This is ridiculous. It's probably not even in the top 10 of worst things you can call someone.

this is why nobody takes SJWs seriously. Everything is always the "worst thing ever"


I can only think of one or two words that are worse. What are your ten?

Because the saying r word is completely unacceptable in 2023. It’s not the 80s, boomer.



Give me a break. It reflects someone with a low IQ. It is used colloquially to call someone an idiot or stupid. Toughen up people!


So you couldn't think of 10 worse words? Got it.

That is a matter of opinion. Why not worry about objective problems like physical violence and children who are unmotivated?

Using insults like this might lead to physical violence, but I bet you don't worry about that.

For pp with the boomer reference, a lot of boomers know better than this person. They probably still use the hand motions that used to go with it, too. Right, Donny?

Sounds like your child learned an important lesson about using inappropriate language. And yes, the "R" word is one of the worst words you can use to describe another person.


I can think of a lot worse but yes - chalk this up to a learning experience for your child.

I am from a different era where the R word was used all the time so personally, I would not give detention for that, just talking to but it is a lesson learned. There are so many worse things that kids are doing so it seems silly for detention for this.
MCPS means business these days when it comes to harsh consequences for any infraction gone are the days of restorative justice...

The person is clearly a broke, desperate troll. Not buying it at all.

I have an Autistic child and I can't think of a worse world. My kid could have overheard it and would have been really hurt by anyone slinging that word around. I don't know if detention is the answer but I'm asking you as a parent to please talk to your kid about this and the fact that there are a lot of people with disabilities that are invisible that could be really hurt by overhearing this, even if his friend wasn't. It may have been acceptable in the past, but my teen (and every teen) has access to a world of information, and she has educated herself about her diagnosis and how people like her used to be called the "R' word and institutionalized and even killed because the world viewed them as worthless.

I mean, the word "moron" has a similar history, but no one freaks out about it.

I know, I cannot believe these overreactions. Its no longer politically correct to use. But is is essentially the equivalent of calling someone "stupid."

Is there a medical diagnosis for being a moron?
