I'm a teenager, as this woman's daughter was.

In my opinion, it's better to punch each other and let it all out than
A) let it stress the kid out and give them an ulcer
B) having them play mind games with the other person and/or spread rumors
or
C) letting all that tension stay in like A) but instead have a Columbine incident

Sometimes, kids should just go old school and let out a good old-fashioned can of Whoop Ass™. I know my parents and grandparents used to, and they turned out fine. Anyone else remember hearing stories of a dad or mom saying "That kid beat you up and you just took it?" and then beating the kid too?! Well, what did they do afterward? The parent would say "Now you go and get 'em!"

Pertaining to the Florida mom, I say release her from jail, please. She's probably just old school. If none of the girls involved in the fight are seriously injured, why should someone be penalized for their eye-for-an-eye belief system? Sure, there are better alternatives than the ones I listed, but I don't think they're obvious or even easy to follow through on for most people.

In summation:
Fist fight, get a few black eyes, and everybody moves on.
(if you truly keep it old school and the people involved are "normal")
