A Pledge of Allegiance "Waiver"? Maybe This is Part of America's Problem!"We have a lot of American values and traditions that seem to be whittling away." Editor's Note: When I was in public elementary school, we began every morning with the Pledge of Allegiance and then sang "My Country Tis of Thee" before starting classes. I remember there was something about facing the flag with my hand on my heart, reciting the pledge that gave a certain feeling of pride for my country, and thankfulness to be a part of it. It was the beginning of a spirit of patriotism for the very unique—and diverse—USA. I think the Pledge is an important part of learning to care about this country as a citizen, how it came to be, and the desire to see it thrive in the future; and I personally think losing it would be a mistake. Perhaps a larger one than we might imagine. -Aimee Herd, BCN. [Reprinted with permission from Todd Starnes/Fox News] At first Micah Brienen thought his sister-in-law's text message was a joke.
