The pledge of allegiance is important because you are showing patriotism and making a promise to our flag which is our region. Also it is important because not only you are making a promise but also you are promising to God, too
The importance of the Pledge is excactly that. It's your swearing allegience to the United States and what it stands for. A verbal expression of love of country, of your willingness to lay down your life and honor for that country. It's important for the citizens to feel this so that the country can survive its inner turmoils and foreign attacks. No matter the differences of the citizens, if they have a common love of country the country can survive most anything. I think that the citizens of the U.S, have gotten away from teaching that in the last forty years and are reaping the consequences now. I hope that answers your question.

To show respect.
The Pledge is used on children as a form of indoctrination and social control,Everyday in their formative years, before innocent little children can start their day, they must observe a religio-military ceremony promising to support America and God..
All through their schooling Over and over again, day after day year after year they recite the pledge,as with all indoctrinations (brain washing) if it said enough they will believe it and follow it without question..
Let us not forget the original Salute that went with the pledge,The Bellamy Salute was devised by Francis Bellamy, who wrote The Pledge.In the original salute the right hand is extended gracefully, palm upward, toward the Flag, and remains in this gesture till the end of the affirmation; whereupon all hands immediately drop to the side.
Up to WWII, American kids saluted during The Pledge, but this was type of salute was dropped when the Nazis adopted an extremely similar salute to their Furor Adolph Hitler.
This is a custom that goes back to 1892. That was an era when millions of immigrants were coming to America, and there were questions about how to help them to assimilate, so they would "feel like Americans." A Christian minister named Francis Bellamy believed what was needed was a ritual that everyone could participate in, something to encourage patriotic feelings. So he wrote the Pledge. In the original version, it did NOT mention God, because although he was a minister, he wanted the pledge to be secular-- a celebration of the country's flag and its traditions, as well as praise for the country's ideal of "liberty and justice for all."
But in 1954, during the era of McCarthyism and during the Cold War, congress wanted to make a statement that Americans worship God, where our Communist enemies do not. Pastor Bellamy probably would not have wanted the Pledge changed, but it now is said as "One nation, under God, indivisible..." (the original line simply said "One nation, indivisible...") Still, the intent is to instill patriotism and loyalty to the country, whether you were born here or not, and that is why the Pledge is still said even 125 years later.
The primary purpose of the Pledge of Allegiance is to install a feeling of loyalty and patriotism for the country. It was written in 1892.
