““Disability” is a very widely understood term that doesn’t have any inherent bias, negative or otherwise.”

As I a birn into challenges I can tell you for sure disabilities has those things, & definitely exploited by bulls & such, & not just in educating.

Challenge is indeed not a individual thing, neither is the other term, that you applying to both terms.

WOW, REALLY? How old are you? Where did you go to school? I was in Capitalist South Florida., might be the biggest reason. I went to school in the late ‘70s-‘2000s, counting higher educational experiences & even in degree & certification courses, never heard Challenge term used.

I was not in too regular-mainstreaming classes, growing-up, & they used disabilities & it was ruthless at times, even in PE & Etc. classes. Children ruthlessness is going to happen for a lot of reasons, like horrible parenting- one of the biggest problems in Capitalist 1st places, that want parents working over parenting.
