I don’t trust these people one bit. They will call ty-dying mathematics and write it off as such.
Fine with me. That should be the parents' decision.
Most people don't use math beyond addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. I don't. And I learned math through differential equations and linear algebra.
Apparently, Alfred North Whitehead believed the same thing, although he thought that children should also learn statistics.
I'd replace that with learning to read a graph.
But again, it should be up to the parent. Of all the subjects worthy of study, why are most chldren forced to learn arcane subjects like trig and algebra II?
Look at it this way, if parents aren't given primary responsibility for their chldren's education, who should be? The State? Is that really a conservative position?
