It isn't illegal but you can be confronted by the child's parents, because some religions don't say the pledge to the flag, so he can stand. He doesn't have to say it or put his or her hand over their chest, but standing is permitted. I had a guy like that in my class once when I was in High school. He was Muslim. He wouldn't stand up for the pledge. The teacher was upset, but he was okay with standing but not saying it.

AnswerI pledge allegiance, To every flag, on our planet Earth

and for our planet we will remain equals, all nations under god

with liberty and justice for all.

The current pledge is something that no one should have to stand for or even have the desire to stand for. The modern day America is anything but free. And why one nation under god? are we to honestly believe that America is the only nation god watches...because to me it looks like god has given up on us a long long time ago or this corruption of our leaders would not continue.Liberty and Justice for all is also complete fiction. What about 9/11? there was a lot of Justice there. I can not tell you i am 100% sure the government (who were sworn to protect us) committed such an injustice, but the evidence and facts shown leaves me to believe they have betrayed us. I am only 16 years old but I have taught myself not to believe what I am told but rather what i see. The truth is hidden behind all these lies that keep these government officials safe and I will find it.

Can a teacher force a student to take a class?

They can refer a student to a class or a tutor, or refuse them admittance to a higher-level class, if they feel the student's performance is weak. If a teacher is the only one for a subject at a given school, the student will be forced to take their class, if it is a required one, or in a field they want to study. If a student feels they have been wronged or mistreated, they can speak with a school counselor, or their parents with a counselor or administrator.

Do the Jehovah Witness believe in the pledge of allegience?

No.They do not participate in anything that would include worship of any idols (in this case, you are pledging allegiance to a "flag") or a political organization (the United States of America). They believe that God is not partial.They are, however, respectful of others that do believe in it.The Pledge of Allegiance of the United States is an oath of loyalty to the national flag and the republic of the United States of America, originally composed by Francis Bellamy in 1892. The Pledge has been modified four times since then, with the most recent change adding the words "under God" in 1954. Congressional sessions open with the swearing of the Pledge, as do government meetings at local levels, meetings held by the Knights of Columbus, Royal Rangers, Boy Scouts of America, Girl Scouts of the USA, Fraternal Order of Eagles, Freemasons, Toastmasters International and their concordant bodies, other organizations, and many sporting events.The current version of the Pledge of Allegiance reads:[1]I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
