NTO; A person, pet or creature destined to pitifully struggle through a miserable life just barely on the threshold of existence due to mental defect, congenital stupidity or substance abuse.

Maybe just a half-step below the functional dysfunctional.
An NTO will be lucky to survive to achieve reproductive maturity, not that they'll have the opportunity once there.
