[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How is saying the pledge optional? It is not like those who do not say it can be in another room doing some other activity. If you do not say it everyone knows and that reflects badly on you. There are social consequences and teachers attitudes and so on[/quote] I've never experienced any negative consequences as a result of not saying the pledge, and I stopped saying it in elementary school. Of course, I suppose it depends on your environment. I prefer to avoid environments where not saying the pledge is assumed to reflect badly on you.[/quote] I tried not saying the Pledge once -- I was in 3rd grade. The teacher stopped the class in the middle of the pledge and asked me what I was doing. She just stood there, glaring at me, until I said sorry, and started saying the pledge. I never tried not saying it again. [/quote]
