This is the shocking moment a woman shockingly attacks a child before a passer-by intervenes to give her instant retaliation.
The stunning video shows the mother casually walking with her daughter along a Brazilian sidewalk as the attacker approaches them from the opposite direction.
Within seconds, the woman extends her arm and punches the girl in the face.
The mother prepared to attack the attacker when her daughter seems to think that responding with violence is not the appropriate response and stops her mother while the woman punches the air.

The girl and her mother were left shocked after a stranger abruptly attacked her on a street in Brazil.
However, a man who witnessed the attack seemed to think that responding with force was the correct course of action and ran towards the woman and kicked her in the abdomen.
The woman immediately falls to the ground and the man tries to kick her three more times, but it only connects once.
She then admonishes the man and seems ready to fight him too, when a passerby intervenes.
Other onlookers can be seen checking on the well-being of the mother and her daughter.

One person claimed the man’s response should have been harsher.
“In my opinion, it wasn’t good enough,” he said.
