Title 4, Chapter 1 of the U.S. Code (a.k.a. the Flag Code) requires it.
You use your right hand because your heart is located on the left side of your body, so you are placing your hand over your heart.

The stance while saying the pledge is changed from mabye tired or any mood the room or crowd or group is in, to respectfull, and honoring. i had to do a report on this so this is what a teacher or anyone would like to hear. :)
We say,"I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America,and to the republic for which it stands,one nation..."The republic "for which it stands" is the United States. Make sense now?
they stand and put their hands right side and look at the flag
If you are wearing a hat, you should remove it while saying the pledge of allegiance. You should also stand, and place your right hand over your heart.

Americans would be considered to be unpatriotic if they were to remain sitting while saying the Pledge of Allegiance, unless they are handicapped or injured.

the real reson, no matter what anyone says, patroism(excuse the spelling). You say the pledge, and by putting your hand on your heart believe in the pledge. Same as a solider saluting while the flag is being raised. because we love America
I assume you are referring to the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools. The answer is no. It is federal law, under the First Amendment's free speech clause, that children may not be required to recite the Pledge. Children who don't want to do it, for whatever reason, can stand or sit respectfully while the others recite the Pledge. Schools are prohibited from forcing children to recite the pledge, and schools are prohibited from punishing those students for refusing to recite the pledge. However, any students who harass those who don't say the Pledge are subject to discipline or even expulsion.
