I've been out of school for about a year. At the time I hated it. I was a bad student, and a little dickhead, although at the time I thought I was always right. Looking back, I probably would have gotten a better education if a teacher would have beaten my ass and put me in my place. Teachers have absolutely no power. DETENTION! BOO-YA! That'll teach em!
So this turd got a chair pulled out from under him... big deal. People get blown up everyday. Who cares? I bet he went straight home and whined to his parents. I know that's what I would have done.
"Just out of interest...Im English...If I moved to America and sent my children to an American school ...would my kids be expected/forced to stand up to the American Anthem and Pledge Allegience?"
If I went to England, I'd stand out of respect, but not actually recite anything. To me that seems like the best compromise... not pledging allegiance to anything, and also not showing disrespect to your host country.
