What is a more politically correct way to call something a “Red-Headed Step-Child”? This is good, but it connotes that the entity will eventually triumph, like a "Cinderella Story". |

What is a more politically correct way to call something a “Red-Headed Step-Child”? I like "persona non grata" best so far. "bastard children" might be too colorful for a corporate blog post. Thanks! |

What is a more politically correct way to call something a “Red-Headed Step-Child”? @Chris This blog post isn't about a person. It's about an aspect of software development, so no feelings are going to get hurt. I'm really trying to be sensitive to people who may have been adopted or raised by a parent other than their own. |
