Mom Sparks Parenting Debate After Confronting Her Son's Bully At School In Tense Video

Mom confronting child who was bullying her child

TikToker Bettina Ramirez divided viewers after filming herself confronting a girl who had been going around telling other kids that her son is 'gay.'

Most parents can agree that sending their kids off to school or any other activity is nerve-wracking. Their child is suddenly in someone else's care, after all, and they may be faced with challenges, like bullying, that they would not face at home.

But that's where the agreement ends, as parents are divided over how to handle problems that happen outside of their homes.


Among the most recent parents to create controversy was mother, Bettina Ramirez, or @bizi_be on TikTok, who decided the best course of action was to confront her child's bully directly instead of addressing the kid's parents.

While at her son's school, having lunch with him in the school cafeteria, Ramirez saw the female student who had been bullying her son and decided to approach her herself.

Ramirez said in the video:

"I'm Abraham's mom, and he's been telling me that you've been bullying him, and I'd like to ask you to stop."
"Do not mess with my son. Do you understand me?"
"I'm not playing. The next time he tells me that you're bullying him, I will go knock at your parents' door."

In a follow-up video, after many asked why Ramirez didn't approach the parents instead, she explained:

"If I could have talked to the parents, I would have talked to the parents."
"The teacher was not allowed to give me any of the child's information."
"The only reason I found out [who the child was] was I later asked my son, and he told me who the child was."

Since posting the initial video, Ramirez turned off the commenting feature on the video, as well as each of her subsequent videos about the incident, but Redditors went back and shared their thoughts on some of her earlier, unrelated videos.

Some continued to support the mom in her decision to stand up for her child.

But others thought Ramirez had taken it too far by approaching a child.

With all of the controversy and comments showing up on her videos, Ramirez posted one final video on the subject, in which she explained that she turned off the commenting feature, because she didn't care to hear anyone else's opinions on the subject.

Whether everyone can agree about how Ramirez handled the situation, hopefully, the bullying will stop now, and hopefully the bully learned the gravity of what she was doing so she'd discontinue the behavior.
