Completely agree. We approach reading with the attitude that all kids can learn to read well, but for some reason with math we just throw up our hands and say “they’re just not a math person”.
When a person finds it too difficult for him to learn to read music, he tells you that he is proud that he can’t read music.
The same thing happens when he fails to learn how to do arithmetic.
Many people in the propaganda media, who are words people, not numbers people, mock people are good at math.
