Today in class we discussed the flag and what it meant to us. Honestly, for me and my family, I don't think we're very patriotic. Not that we are un-patriotic, but we don't have mugs with flags on them, we don't have flag napkins or flag plates, we don't have a flags in any rooms in our house. The only time we put up a flag outside of our house is on 4th of July. Some people might think that's terrible, but really, I don't think a flag means that much. It's a piece of fabric that has a pretty design on it. I think a lot of students are grown up thinking the flag is a big deal. That's it is the "norm" to respect and worship the flag. For me, even though I grew up in that same environment in school, I don't think the same way. Maybe because the flag isn't a big deal in my household.
How do you view the flag in your household?
