Chicago Pregnant Mom Dragged and Stomped: Cheer Captain Who Threw First Punch Says She Was Following Others at Orville T Bright School

High school should be a place for growth, not fear.

This article was last updated by on

Bigshawno Macwithdafatcat alleges that a group of kids jumped at her and her children, DeVon and DeVony’e, at Orville T Bright School.

She was hurt because she couldn’t do anything for her kids and felt she had failed them, as she didn’t wish to lay a hand on a minor.

Bullying in high school is not new, and sometimes this behavior crosses a dangerous line into physical violence.

This shift changes everything, and it’s no longer just about hurt feelings but about physical safety. It can look like a physical attack, assault with objects, and severe threats.

The impact deepens when bullying becomes violent and the fear becomes constant.

This environment makes it impossible for students to focus on learning and can lead to serious physical injury and lasting emotional trauma.

Everyone must recognize this line. What might start as “just teasing” can escalate into physical violence.

Community Outraged After Attack on Pregnant Mom and Children at Chicago School

A South Side community is demanding action after a violent attack on a pregnant mother and her two young children outside Orville T. Bright School.

The mother, Bigshawno Macwithdafatcat, described the traumatic event in a detailed Facebook post.

Macwithdafatcat said she was forced to watch as a group of kids slammed her son to the ground and banged his head on the concrete.

Meanwhile, she was unable to help as she was being jumped, dragged, and stomped on the ground.

Her children, a son and her 6-year-old daughter, were also targeted. She alleges a 12-year-old boy pulled her daughter’s hair, leaving the little girl crying and terrified.

Im sitting here crying, I can still hear the cries of my kids saying Mommy, help me, im hurt.

The incident has sparked outrage among neighbors, who claim the same group of children has been involved in other attacks.

I looove all the moms on this post, man like an army. I wish i can join tomorrow, this shit pissed me off. I was yelling at the phone, showed my daughter, explained to her this is bullying, this is not what’s up at all, if you ever experience this, im going to jail, Jesus, the babies was screaming you looked helpless, im so sorry.

In a surprising turn, one of the alleged participants, identified as a cheer captain, has since apologized. She stated that she threw the punch but was “following the others.”

There are now discussions among the involved students about starting an anti-bullying campaign.

Sorry, I haven’t been replying back. I’ve been trying to stand on my left leg. It got worse after all those kids jumped me.

The emotional scars remain for the traumatized family. Some even claimed that Macwithdafatcat has been suffering from sickle cell, a lifelong health condition.

Macwithdafatcat says her children were too scared to go home and had to be picked up by their grandmother, leaving her feeling heartbroken and failed by the situation.

If you guys planning on supporting me and my kids today at his school, please don’t come disrespectful, cuz trust me, I’m mad myself. I wanna snap but NO IM THE MOTHER AND IM GONNA PRESENT MYSELF AS A MOTHER WITH SINCE THE TIME TO COME IS 8:45am through 9am if you don’t know the name. Of the school it’s called Orville T Bright School.
