Forcing someone to say the pledge is contradictory to the freedom the pledge represents.

At my high school, we were technically required to say the pledge, but I know one guy who didn't, and he never got in trouble.  I have no objection to the pledge personally, so I always said it.

Freedom isn't free, plus we are talking about children, who don't have full constitutional rights anyhow.

Didn't go to American public school but lets just say I'd have been downright miffed had it not. We should have something similar in the UK
