Did anyone else ever have to sing songs in school against their will? XD

Uhhhh... I do remember it, but the less said about it, the better Tongue . The songs themselves weren't bad, but we didn't exactly produce the best renditions of them...

I'm glad we didn't have to do that in infant school or secondary school... at least, not very often. It was mostly a junior school thing!

Secondary school for me never featured singing. I don't think it would have ever turned out very well given how rambunctious teenagers can be. ROFL

Given how many people opted to not even speak the Pledge of Allegiance come high school, barely even holding their hand over their hearts, I doubt you could really enthuse tired and cranky teenagers ROFL

I wonder if they'll ever get rid of that dang pledge requirement some day. Just such a strange thing to implement in a school setting. Errm

To me the pledge feels like some culty indoctrination thing that is somehow viewed as normal by a lot of American's and yet if a country like North Korea had kids reciting some pledge to their country every weekday morning it would be seen as brainwashing and dangerous. America has a weird fascination with their flag though, so I can't see the pledge being removed from schools. It should be optional without consequences though for people who don't want to recite it. Like if someone was here on a work visa for a job and their kid has to attend school here, why should they have to pledge allegiance to a flag and country that they're not a citizen of? Like imagine if international students in colleges had to recite it before classes. Errm
