What should you get a mentally retarded girl in a wheelchair for her thirteenth birthday?

First of all, you can give her the respect of not being referred to as "retarded". If she is mentally slow that does not mean she doesn't like the same thing the other girls her age like. If you can speak with her family then you might ask them what she wants and get her something that you know she's looking forward to getting.

Can you get arrested for being a retard?

While this question may be intended as a joke, it is sad to note that in the 1700s and 1800s, some people did get arrested because of their disability. Back then, there was fear of mentally retarded people, and a total lack of understanding about what causes this condition; undoubtedly, some mentally retarded or mentally ill people were arrested simply because they looked and acted so different. Today, it is rare for a mentally retarded person to be arrested as a result of prejudice. People in law enforcement are more familiar with the symptoms and behaviors one might see in a person who is developmentally delayed in some way. And if a person with retardation is arrested today, it is for suspicion of breaking the law, rather than because of a fear of that person's disability.
