You're suspending belief in the first place to make the zombie apocalypse believable, right? Secondly, a lot of people just have problems with any type of violence involving children, either real or fake.

All in all it was a great episode and the Lizzie character was a great look into how a child might end up in a zombie apocalypse.

They didn’t actually show any child being killed. It was heavily implied but you didn’t see the actual death blow.
They didn’t show Lizzy stabbing Mica to death, she was on the ground dead and Lizzy’s hands/knife were covered with blood when Carol and Tyreese arrived. You didn’t see Carol shoot Lizzy, the camera pulled back to inside with Tyreese and Judith when Carol pulled the trigger. You didn’t even see Lizzy fall, just heard the sound effect of someone falling. I’m not making excuses or justifying the show and I can understand people’s sensitivity about such things, just trying to inject a little perspective. Edit: Or I could've read the entire topic before posting.

Anyone else find it fascinating that Carol had to do to her "adopted" daughter Lizzie what Rick had to do to Carol's actual daughter Sophia? Both had to "put down" a monster but in differing states, for lack of a better term.

This has probably been mentioned but they did an excellent job of casting Lizzie. She had the crazy eyes and played that role perfectly.
That would be an extremely tough decision to make but there's no room for psychos in that world. |

It would have only been a matter of time before she killed Rick, or Carol, or Tyreese, etc. in their sleep. Or Judith. Living with an alive Lizzie would have been as terrifying as living with the dead all around them. |

Not only that but she was likely going to get herself killed in a brutal, torturous manner.

It would have been more satisfying to have the little psycho "playing" with one of the zombies, get caught, and realize the error of her ways just prior to having her face eaten.
