Everyone has Opinions on how math is being taught terribly everywhere and how you could fix it if you only _____
but it turns out we all fill in the blanks differently and someone else has probably been taught exactly the way you wish and they think it's awful and they want to fill in the blank with the exact opposite
(or it's just not actionable stuff like 'make it interesting!' or something)
also one day you're helping your kid with their homework and they tell you their teacher wants them to do it this other way and you're writing horrified letters to the editor about how dare they change the way we do math, that's also a thing. except nobody writes letters to the editor anymore, we have facebook now.
