Should children be forced to stand and say the Pledge of Allegience?

"One nation, indivisible" is too reactionary towards the Civil War. I guess people trying to mend Red and Blue might think it useful these days but it's almost a case of protesting too much. Like if siblings squabble and mom makes them say "You're my sister and I love you" as part of a making up process. This country IS divisible - pick your dividing line, it has been divided for a long ass time, actually - but that's the case of any large group of people.
