You can't force someone to pledge allegiance to anything in this country. It's that whole 'freedom of speech' thing.

Of course you can; it is publically funded education. Don't want to pledge go to private school.

Nothing wrong with developing a sense of loyalty into one's country.

Have you ever been in a school in Afhghanistan or are you just guessing? I'll tell you that National pride is not at the top of the list.
