Because it caused them to become slaves.
The Spanish tried to make them slaves for the southwestern mines, but it didn’t work very well. The missions virtually made them slaves by converting them and they didn’t allow them to leave the mission.
The Encomienda was a legal system used by the Spaniards during Spanish colonization of the Americas. Whatever the system's mechanics, it only really let Spain keep taking more and more land from the Native Americans.
the french were more kind. they learned to speak their language and they learned their traditions but the spanish were not, they only forced them to work with them
Native Americans, mostly in the southwest U.S., were required to work for the Spanish and give much of their crops to the Spanish in exchange for the supposed "privilege" of being "protected", taught Spanish, and also for being taught the Catholic faith.
They were forced to work in gold or silver mines or on plantations.

Yes to a certain point. Like when the Spanish people came to the new lands to search for gold they used the natives for help. They also enslaved the native Americans in some places, forcing them to work mines and fields, or made them into fuedal peasants.
Yes, the Spanish made Native Americans work the mines in the southwest, but in a strange reversal in Florida as of 1690 slaves were able to escape to Spanish territory to be free. They were able to own a business and live freely.

The encomienda system required Native Americans to pay taxes to the conquistadors in exchange for protection and salvation. This system was a form of labor exploitation where indigenous peoples were forced to work in mines, farms, or ranches for the profit of the Spanish settlers.
