As there academic potential is, put mildly, limited, they are at times a disruptive influence in schools and thus are usually (educated) in specialized institutions. Many retarded people are also targeted by abusers- consider the case of the Scherzer Bros in the l98o"s a developmentally disabled ( translate retarded) girl was sexually assaulted by the athletic and ( chic) Scherzer Brothers. these things happen, so to prevent it these kids are often placed in special classes or institutionalized.
