I felt horrible for Liz. I've certainly encountered negative responses to my religion, but not at such a young age. As I tried to empathize and comfort her, I told her about the time a man hit my friends and I as we crossed a Chicago street because he knew we were Mormon. She said, "You've told me about that before and that doesn't hurt as much as losing a friend." I'm sure there's a lot of truth to that.

That is awful! What kind of parent instills hatred for someone of another religion at such a young age? Terrible.
Did her 'friend' really know that Mormons were to be shunned? Ugh. So sorry for Lizzie. Thanks for making our afternoon so fun today!
I didn't think this would happen until they were older. So sad for Lizzie.
Poor girl! That is awful!
That breaks my heart.
I really can't believe that. Does it really start that young? Crazy!
