Banning the R-word In analyzing two essay’s about banning the word retarded, “A Movie, a Word, and My Family’s Battle” by Patricia E.

When students enter a university that is acting upon “in loco parentis” they are surrendering their autonomy to the intuition. Once the student is enrolled the university gets to decide “how his [or her] time shall be occupied; what his [or her] habits shall be; his [or hers] general deportment; that he [or she] shall not visit certain places; his [or hers] hours of study and recreation” (Lee 2011, 69).

As two neighbors come together to mend a wall, together a wall is fixed, a wall was questioned, and personality traits were clearly revealed.
