[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So, you don't want kids to be respectful in school? Okay. I now understand. Glad your kid was not in my class. I taught a child who was a Jehovah's Witness. He stood when we said the pledge. He had the option of leaving the room. His mom was cool with this. And, this was First Grade. The rest of the kids gladly stood. And, when we studied the flag, we learned patriotic songs and waved small American flags. The kids loved it. [/quote] You broke the law. [/quote] Actually, no. You don't understand the law. The kid had an option.[/quote] The law is crystal clear that staying seated in the classroom is an option. Asking a child to leave, or telling them that they need to leave if they don't stand, is not legal. Here's one case. https://www.aclu.org/news/standing-right-sit-down-aclu-maryland-defends-student-harassed-teacher-not-standing-pledge [/quote]
