[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This comes up all the time on this forum but anyway, there’s nothing you can do OP. It’s not a law. Nobody has to stand for the pledge. The students don’t. I’m a teacher and I don’t say the pledge. I happen to be standing usually since it happens at the beginning of class and I’m prepared to begin instruction but I don’t turn and face the flag and put my hand on my heart. It’s actually kind of creepy that people robotically do this. [/quote] Then why bother with someone reciting the pledge at all? Why don't you ask your administration to just stop doing it in the first place? It's a shame that anyone finds taking a moment to reflect on the greatness of our country and show a little respect to it "creepy." This just shows how much people have come to take what we have in this country for granted. Perhaps when some more rights have been revoked and full authoritarianism has taken hold, you'll reconsider.[/quote]
