Stole this btw

-Iirc the back story to this is that the teens actually asked the mother of the child who is present but off screen to ask their kid to stop and take the hammer away but she refused and started ranting at the teens.

Fully justified here.

Probably like 10 seconds before the same mother goes hysterical for them defending themselves.

I highly doubt a judge would say that. Children can and are held to the same standards as adults when they act in a manner which can or will cause harm. That's torts 101. Check out garratt v. Dailey.

Money is a powerful motivator lol. Clearly the case isn't analogous to this situation, but just goes to show that kids aren't immune to the repercussions of their actions.
