A mom who discover that her 13yo boy is being bullied at school, and the bully is bigger and stronger than him. So, she, who has self defense experiences and also knows kung fu, decides to meet the 13yo bully by herself and beats him mercilessly. What do you think? Is she just protecting her boy, or is she crazy?
That's crazy. I understand the impulse. But sometimes, when you're dealing with kids... you really do have to stop-yourself-shot and remember "I'm the adult here... I can't DO what I naturally want to do right now."
So the details of this situation make it so much worse. It seems way too pre-meditated. I can imagine someone losing-their-shit because their son is being bullied... and doing something stupid while red-hot-angry. But it sounds like she made plans to meet this... child... for a fight. That's messed-up and not something anyone can justify.
The fact that she's (evidently) some highly trained ninja... makes it WAY worse. This isn't some working-mother throwing the first punch she's ever thrown in her life in defense of her kid. This... woman specifically knew how to fight. There's an extra-obligation on you... to not use that shit on children.
There were certainly other options this woman should/could have explored to solve her son's bullying problem. I get where she's coming from. If you fucked with my kid (not that I've got any) I'd be inclined to find a kid and beat-his-ass too. But... you just can't do that. You're the adult. You need to try and set a better example for your kid.

Lol I think this would cause more bullying coming her kids way. They'll all start to say "what are u gonna do, call your mommy?" Theirs only one way to handle a bully, by socking them. Your son needs to learn win, lose or draw. It's apart of being a boy growing into a man.
Everyone thinks their tough til they get punched in there face a bully learns that even if they won the fight they don't ever wanna fight that kid again or they get there ass beat because most bullies are cowards & never intended on fighting in the first place.
I grew up in straight poverty so in order to play outside starting at 6 you had to fight & every ghetto apt we moved into you had to get down first. So when we hit middle school. And highschool it was deff cracking off lol never got bullied was known as crazy & if I ever saw a bully and the other person I seen getting bullied didn't wanna fight, then I'm tryna fight, ofc not many woulda fought me haha cause they knew. I even got stupid police reports on me for fighting a lot as a kid that I had to explain as an adult for a certain job i have now. So stupid i even had to explain those hahaha
I think she's a terrible mother. Here son will be insecure and lack confidence, he'll lack verbal communication skills and that boy will be taunted for the rest of his school years with, "Are you going to call your mommy?" He'll be hiding under his mommy's apron for a long time.
Good for her, she needs to be at the kids mom while she's at it.

I think she is probably facing prison time, unless she had a reasonable belief that her son was in imminent danger. And even then she might. If some guy is threatening another and I have already subdued him and keep beating him, I'll likely get charged.
Well, mothers are very protective over their sons and unfortunately a bully never stops until you beat them up but I don’t think that she handled that very well and maybe she should’ve taught her son kung fu so he could beat the crap out of the bully instead
You probably caused more issues for him. Teach him to stand on his own rather than fighting his battles
Nah she's crazy. She made her kid's reputation worse by butting in where she shouldn't have.
Both, and right or wrong she should be arrested for assault. You can't beat a 13yr. Old when you're an adult. Even if he's a p***k that deserved it.
I think that's good, we need to stop bullying and that's the only thing they understand.
He got what he deserved.
Very dumb if she gets arrested for it.
