Not necessarily. They are not a burden on society, don't get that into your head. I know about retarded people, not because I'm a doctor, because I have a cousin who is retarded. It depends what level of mental retardation they are stuck with, as it can come as mild, moderate and severe. Perhaps those with severe mental retardation need a lot of support, but the majority are fine. Don't ever say that they are a burden on society again.
