Because of the September 11, attacks on the United States, and the more patriotism, the legislation brought about something that would make it mandatory for the Pledge of Allegiance to be stated every morning before class starts. For me, this is something that I totally support. Even though as a child some of my teachers already did this, I experienced some who did not. Making it mandatory would teach children to be more patriot as well as give them some type of basic knowledge about the country that they live in, and I feel as though that is exactly what they need.

I agree for the need for the Pledge of Allegiance. Its important for our country to remember the things that it was founded upon. Some people think that there is no need for the pledge to be said in schools. Wasnt God what this country was founded upon? The pledge is necessary!

I somewhat agree, I think that it would be a great way to teach kids what pledging to your country really is...but on the other hand I do not agree that stating a already quoted sentence about your country in the morning is going to make you a patriot. Americans should love the country because of their own reasons. I dont think reciting the Pledge of Allegiance is going to make us honor our country any more... dont you think its more of an honor for someone to say it on their own... rather than it being a mandatory routine?... I do!
