On September 11th i was at school and they didn't mention anything that had happened during that day. Infact they would not let us turn on televisions or computers during the day. When I got home my family was watching the news and I learned what had happened that day. Maybe because I was in grammar school they didn't want to mention a lot of the details about what had happened on September 11th. I knew something very bad had happened that was very scary to everyone and they didn't seem to want to talk to kids in grammar school about what had happened.

Yes, my life has changed because of September 11th. My school had originally planned a school trip to see a Broadway show in New York City. Insead we went to the local movie theater to see Harry Potter.

What I think should be remembered about September 11th 2001 is that we are not careful enough in our country and we are too trusting. We have to realize that people from other countries dont see things the same way as we do. What we should remember is that we can not be lazy and we have to work hard to keep others safe.

Yes, I did fly an American flag after the events of September 11th 2001. My feelings about the american flag have changed because now I understand whats goes on in the United States.
