Mono means Monkey in Spanish.
Disgusting behaviour. Where are the parents of these hooligans?
Urgh. So young and calling other children monkey. When I was that young I didn't even know racisn even EXISTED! this is so annoying and the parents should be ashamed.
Kids do that shit without anyone telling them anything. Theyre just brutal.
OP
OP
Kids don't come up with a racial slur like monkey all by themselves.
That shit is taught by their parents/older siblings.
"who looks no more than 10 years old"
lol, aging while black.
that kid is no more than 6 or 7.
Try that on for size. :-)

No, they got it from their parents, tv, family, and friends.

You think white children came up with calling black children monkeys just out of the blue? Their parents call blacks monkeys and they're doing the same.

Yup.
We can't get anywhere against this type of behaviour if all we do is look for excuses to let people off the hook for being racist cunts.

You just know from her response that she's dealt with similar cunts before. Likely also knows if anything happens, her and her son will be blamed.

Parents are apparently there, they chose not to stop their kids and not apologise to the woman for their shitty little cunts behaviour.
What the fuck is wrong with those kids?.... Actually what the fuck is wrong with their parents?
Fucking hell, when I was growing up most of the kids didn't even know what the fuck race was until they were at least 12-13.

Seems an accurate label for the kind of behaviour they are engaging in.
Sickening. If I were a parent and saw my child doing that I'd feel deeply disgusted, I can't believe that their parents didn't intervene.
Not good at all, parents should be ashamed. I wonder where in Spain this was.
Growing up in Spain this is not behavior I was ever introduced to, we had several dark skinned students/friends as well. Not excusing the behavior, but as a Spaniard this is shocking.

Even if they did not learn it directly from the parents, the parents would still deserve plenty of flak for a) not intervening and b) not teaching them better.
In Australia we didn't have BHM until 2008. (at least in Queensland, I'm not sure about down south)
From my experience racism like this is worryingly common in Spain, even if it doesn't lead to violence or other hate crimes, it's there, you only need to hang out with someone long enough to hear them either make a joke about a POC or laugh at one.
The "mono" thing I've heard it a shitload of times.
I was also target of a racist joke at one point (I'm a white latino)
And that's without mentioning the city I lived in had an unhealthy amount of graffiti swastikas all over it

The parents of these kids are absolutely disgusting, and whilst the behavior on show from the kids is abhorrent, please remember these are 4-7 year old kids, who barely/don't know right from wrong, so it'd be nice if people didn't call them "cunts" and "worthless shits"
Honestly, wish there were some way for the parents to be penalized for this, but I'm not sure what legal avenue there would be...

I'd be surprised if this was in Madrid or Barcelona.
But I'm not surprised if it was in a smaller city where you do find this sort of behaviour.
No it's not. How is it their fault? You teach kids stupid behaviour and they mimic that. Calling them cunts and everything is just stupid. When it's clearly not their fault. I could understand calling them that if their parents ran over and told them to stop. That would suggest to me the parents are not at fault and they got it off someone else. But the fact their parents didn't do anything suggests they got it off them.

Parents that don't give a shit + Telecinco is the perfect recipe for a shithead. 80% of the stuff in this channel is either reality shows and people yelling at each other various shit. Including in kid-friendly timeslots. I've had looked after kids that had no issue saying that their parents or grandparents allowed or directly set that channel to shut them up, and the sort of crap they'd absorbed was absolutely impressive in a bad way.
In any case, you only need one bad apple, so to speak. Once one child starts using a slur, the others will adopt it in a matter of days. That's how it's always been.
That so fucked up, stuff like that continues to happen it's sad. Happened when I was a kid if you happen to be mixed too, it''s not exclusive to a color, it happens when you are considered different. I hope the kid is ok. Things like that can really change your point of view of people in general, it did with me.
What's the issue and why do you think it takes precedence over the topic at hand?
Probably saw it happening outside their apartment window, and decided to film it.
No, we don't need to talk about that. Stop with this distraction like you're some apologist.
Anyways, that kid will grow up strong; hang in there buddy!
Sadly, yeah. There's a ton of "I have no problem with coexisting, but I'm sure they can take a a joke" and in this case, a lot of "kids are kids" too.
For certain, those kids need a smacking.
Eeeeeh, I'm not so sure about that. The smaller cities are not any different from bigger ones in my experience, and there's black people everywhere. I can't speak for every region, but I wouldn't say Madrid or Barcelona are especially non-racist compared to other places. If anything, Madrid breeds a kind of facha you don't see anywhere else, and Barcelona has its own chaste of smug, hispterish, racist fucks who are too european for their own good.

It's likely they saw it happening and began to record it. If you put everything in life under a microscope then everything will start to appear sinister when you over analyse every detail, act, and situation.
