Witnesses told police the 14-year-old girl tased the 13-year-old child during an argument.
Outraged, the mom of the younger girl whipped out a knife and slashed the stun gun-wielding assailant in the face.
The slashed student was taken to an area hospital where she was listed in stable condition with a minor injury, officials said.
“NYPD and EMS immediately responded to this incident, which occurred outside of the building after dismissal,” Department of Education spokeswoman Miranda Barbot said. “We will work closely with the NYPD as they conduct a thorough investigation, and provide additional safety and counseling support to the school.”
All three were taken to the 25th Precinct stationhouse for questioning. Charges were pending.

I'm not a parent but I can only imagine what I would do if someone use a Taser on my child. now I think about the parents of the other child, who was cut in the face. A adult given my 14 year old a buck-fifty its 
at any normal parent handing out buck fifties to teenagers. I get what you're saying but that ain't exactly normal.
being a parent, a good parent doesn't necessarily mean resorting to criminal behavior in defense of one's child. Some parents would call the police if that happened to their child. This one decided to cut the other girl and now she's arrested. Might be looking at a felony. Some questions to consider. How long after the stun gun incident did the mother slash the other girl? Was it immediately after thereby defending her daughter? Or did some time pass and this was retaliation? If it's the latter, no wonder she got arrested.
