Her comments quickly drew attention online, with many users weighing in on whether her response was appropriate or concerning.

“Kids Should Stand Up for Themselves” Supporters Back the Mother

Many commenters supported Musick’s stance, saying children should not be expected to remain passive when physically attacked.

Jasmine Bonner shared that her own son has been in multiple fights at school, always after being hit first.

She said she supports her child defending himself and even rewards him after such incidents, including making his favorite meal.

Another commenter, Nae Davis, echoed a similar , writing that she was raised with a strict rule of finishing a fight once someone puts their hands on you.

I was raised on “FINISH IT” idgaf how it started they touch you finish it… My daddy said “deal with them or deal with me” and he never had to repeat himself lmao

She added that her father the belief that children should handle conflict directly if they are physically provoked.

Christina Riley also supported the mother’s approach, saying she teaches her children to avoid starting fights but to defend themselves when necessary.

As u should….I love the dont hit first but definitely hit back mentality I personally taught my kids this and never regretted it…Reward that child!!! Lol

She encouraged parents to recognize the importance of self-protection, while still discouraging aggression.

“Reward that child,” she wrote, agreeing that children should not be punished for responding to physical harm.

“School Discipline and Safety Concerns” Critics Raise Questions

However, not all responses agreed with Musick’s reaction. Some commenters raised concerns about how such attitudes may affect school environments and discipline.

Taura TazzBee Bell emphasized that she takes school conflicts seriously and believes schools and other parents should be held accountable when incidents occur.

She noted that situations like this can escalate quickly and should be handled through proper disciplinary channels rather than encouragement of fighting.

Cassandra Soulsistah Grigsby questioned the school’s of the situation, stating that the other child’s parents should have been contacted instead.

They should have called the other child parents not you, your sun didn’t do anything wrong 

She argued that the child who was hit should not be blamed and suggested the response should have focused more on addressing the initial aggression.

Other commenters expressed concern about the broader message being sent to children.

While some agreed that self-defense is important, they worried that celebrating fighting in school could normalize violence rather than teach conflict resolution.

Several users stressed that schools should focus on preventing physical confrontations entirely and ensuring that both students are protected.

The post continues to circulate widely, drawing mixed reactions from parents who are divided between supporting self-defense and advocating for stricter non-violent discipline in schools.
