Her mother, , took to Facebook to express her outrage and frustration.

Moreover, she acknowledged her own ban from the school due to her actions, saying:
Now I get me being banned, because I did hit first. But when addressing my child, she will be called by her name and not a mother f**ker or Ni**a from a grown ass man. Period!!!
