[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does neurotypical mean?[/quote] Its a term used to insult kids with special needs or developmental delays by highlighting the differences. Its a completely unnecessary comment.[/quote] It’s a term used within the special needs community to say that a child does not have special needs that are mental or emotional, usually as clarification, like OP did. Child a has d special need, while child b is neurotypical. It’s not a judgement, just an explanation. For someone who works with children, knowing their is an older child with special needs and a younger child who is neurotypical could be vital. A younger child is not mature enough to understand that the child with special needs has to have extra help and may get extra attention. An older child is more likely to understand, even if the child is resentful or jealous.[/quote]
