When I was a kid I use to, thought it was just every routine thing to show you're proud of the counry you live in. But now that I've reached a good age, I find myself thinking of things to be thankful for. An extension on the moment of silence, if you will.

Yes, but for the first six years, it did not contain the phrase, "under God". Had to relearn it.
If someone object because as religious beliefs ie: Jehovah Witness - they were excused from saying it and sit there quietly.

Still in school, still say it every morning, yet, as an agnostic, I just leave out the 'under god' piece of the pledge.

Yes we all did with our hand over our hearts. After that, the Lord's Prayer. This produced respect for God and Country, Teachers, one another!!! No profanity, no fighting (in school), no stealing, no guns, but we did have a few bullies - I mean like a handful, they just walked around and talked tough - but they were still scary. My elementary school Principal was tough. I would rather cross the bully than her - lol!! Actually, it was reverence.

Of course I'm proud to be American, mainly due to my ancestors. I'm not as patriotic as in the past. I don't feel anyone should be forced to pledge to the flag.

But my son does and I am glad. Being an atheist, I wouldn't mind having the words "under god" dropped though.

Yes and my mind will be forever scared........ NOT!
At what point in American history did peoples feelings and the need to not be offended become a Constitutional right? I guess it is a by product of a hyphenated America.

I am not American so the pledge of Allegiance is not a part of our country but they used to make us sing the national anthem in both official languages every day. To this day not speaking french I don't know half the words to whatever I was singing were.
p.s. I meant to click no

Yes, we said the pledge everyday. Patriotic duty must be a part of our youth or they will find their country lost to some other governmental system. "We The People" make up or break up the government. It is in everyone's best interest to keep up with daily events and keep our republic for which it stands.
