Black Kids as Monkeys

In another group, a white woman in a black/white interracial relationship referred to her unborn child as a monkey and it really rubbed me the wrong way.

I’m a (soon-to-be) Black mom. My partner, my child’s father, is white. I will *never* let anyone refer to my kids as monkeys, so why would I?

Does anyone else with black or partly black kid have a problem with this or is it just me?
