Do American kids actually recite an oath to their country EVERY DAY? I keep hearing about that everywhere but it kinds of blows my mind to much for me to accept it as fact.

Yes, I grew up doing "The Pledge of Allegiance" daily. Through some court cases students won the right to abstain, but I don't know if I've ever seen it. You would make yourself into an outsider immediately
