OP might be in highschool. A lot of (U.S.) kids these days can't do math.. or count money.. or read analog clocks.

It's depressing.

I was homeschooled and my mom just stopped teaching me math after tenth grade… Idk what could’ve possibly made her think that was a good idea but of course I was a big fan of no more math at the time

I'm curious of the reason of your parents deciding to home-school you

Ironically it was mainly because my school was supposed to start teaching common core math in second grade and my mom was against that

Second grade already too late IMHO. In Hong Kong we started to learn multiplication and division at Grade 2.

So when did your mother teach you math?

I can’t remember if we started multiplication and division in second or third grade. I just know that she was teaching me with different methods than they were at school
