They just started "mainstreaming" some retarded kid at my son's school and now the whole class has to cater to this kid. He's slowing down all the normal kids, which I resent on behalf of my (also normal) son.

I totally understand why this bothers you. I think it's important not to lose sight of the fact that every child is unique and has their own abilities and interests. You might also want to consider ways that you can help your son feel more supported while they're at school. This might include talking to the teacher or the other parents about how you can collaborate to provide more help for your son - or ways to incorporate the special needs student without disrupting the other children's learning too much.  Thank you for bringing up this issue.
