Mexicans have been discriminated against for the last 30 to 40 years. So if you are in a latin neighborhood and they see you as non-mexican or gringo or white, they might feel like you dont like them, so they will not like you.
American mexicans are very different from Mexicans from Mexico. Actually most mexicans that I meet are very nice. Keep in mind, that Im Italian as well.
Try to talk to them in spanish, and see if that helps. Everytime I talk to them in spanish, i notice they appreciate the effort. But at that age, most kids are too young too realize how rude they can truly be. If it stays, leave them alone or tell their parents, as no little kid likes a mexican beat down! |

that's not being rude- that's just kids being kids. in case you didn't realize it, all kids tease each other and make fun of other kids. just because the kids you grew up with were mexican, that doesn't mean all mexicans are rude. |

Hi there! please do not sterotype all mexicans for a couple of little, probably traumatized kids, who were most certainly not even mexican in the first place. I am totally nice and polite and respectful and I am mexican living in Mexico, and whenever I travel abroad I like to be even nicer and more polite. So think twice before badmouthing a whole country for some teenagers. |

I am sorry that you have had a bad experience. Mexicans are not rude, but sometimes teenagers are. Why don't you talk this over with your parents or your teachers at school. |

ok...if you were in the US, chances are those people were chicanos, or...hispanic americans, and not mexicans. i am a teacher, and many of my new students tell me this as well. they say these kids call them wetbacks and all kinds of mean names. you just have to ignore them. they are kids. they don't speak for all mexicans, they just speak for stupid kids. don't let them bother you. they may feel threatenned that you are more "intouch" with your heritage than they are, perhaps a better spanish speaker, i don't know...but don't worry about it. it's not "mexicans," it's kids.
also, the fact that you are venezuelan and italian...well, you may know this already...but the way the class systems work, and all of that...these kids may feel intimidated by you (but they shouldn't.) and that's why they are being mean, because they have ideas about you and who you are, that might not be true. |

Not all Mexicans are rude. What there doing is wrong but thats just kids being kids. As they get older they'll realize what their doing is wrong and they won't do it to anyone anymore. I'm Mexican American and I'm really friendly and my dads family is Mexican and there really friendly too. Try being friends or talking with them? If that doesn't work talk to your parents about it. In my old neighborhood I was harrassed by the neighbor kids and they were white. Then one day my father went and talked to there parents and everything was fine afterwords. |

Sounds more like a problem with having a new neighbor. Kids can be cruel to new people to a neighborhood or school. Some of them are real jerks.
The Mexicans who threw sand at you are jerks too. There are many more nice Mexicans than the ones who tried to ruin it for you.
Just focus on the people who are nice to you--you'll find them to be of all colors, shapes, and sizes. Be accepting of them, not because of their ethnicity, but because they treat you with respect. Treat them with respect too!
Good luck! |
