This is silliness.
I call my 11-year-old white, Jewish son “monkey” all the time. It’s one of my favorite nicknames for him, others being “catnip” and “madman.” My younger son I tend to call “baby” and “bunny” and “boo-boo.” He says I can keep calling him those things in private, but please, not around his friends.
