Carshawnda Hatter, the Chicago mom who was attacked by a group of elementary school students, has moved with her family to a new home in a safe, undisclosed location.

Her children will be enrolled in a private school and receive therapy.

Many media outlets incorrectly reported that Carshawnda was pregnant.

Carshawnda’s story caused an uproar after she was attacked near her home on Monday by Orville Bright Elementary School students when she asked them to stop bullying her son.

A GoFundMe raised over $16,000 for the mother of 2.

On her GoFundMe page, Carshawnda said she was walking home with her 9-year-old son and 6-year-old daughter when they were attacked.

“I tried asking the students why are y’all keep bullying him what is wrong next thing i know they started attacking my son then as i was trying to help my son they all jumped me everything happened so fast. Around 3 p.m., in the 10600 block of South Bensley Avenue, a group of children and teens came up to us. Before I could even react, they started attacking us – hitting me and my son over and over. I tried to shield him, but there were too many of them, and all I could think about was getting him out of there safely.”

Carshawnda, who has sickle cell disease, is pressing charges against the parents of the kids who attacked her, for not controlling their children.

She’s also considering legal action against the school district for ignoring her many complaints about the bullying for 2 years.

Carshawnda cautioned supporters about fake GoFundMe pages created in her name to raise money fraudulently.
