School Pledge

Through most of elementary school and jr high, I refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance for a reason I don't really remember. I think it had something to do with a friend of mine who didn't say it out of religious conviction. I didn't want her to feel uncomfortable with being the only kid in class that wasn't saying it, so I refused.

It's rather pointless to have kids recite something that they don't truely understand and when they don't know the ramifications of such an act.

All I can say to this article from Yahoo! is YES!!!
