[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your poor little snowflake op. We certainly wouldn’t want trouble him/ her in any way. Imagine being asked to stand in respect for ones country for a whole 30 seconds every day. [/quote]

You cannot do this. Please stop being stupid. [/quote]

Why should a non-religious person be forced to stand for a pledge that includes a reference to God?  My DC chooses to sit quietly during the pledge and is not disruptive at all - I’m fine with that, as is the teacher.  [/quote]

Basic manners.[/quote]

Nope. The law.[/quote]

There is no law that requires someone to stand for the Pledge.[/quote]

Sigh. Yes, I know. Read what I was replying to (someone who said kids need to stand because “manners”). Asinine.[/quote]

It is manners. You might not like it but people will certainly think you’re disrespectful if you don’t stand. It’s your choice to be disrespectful and not have manners.[/quote]
