Some parents believe that learning mathematics is redundant and should not be taught while others believe that it should remain a foundational subject whether or not it is used in later life. Discuss both sides.

Parents of every child are always keen on giving the best possible education for them. Many of them believe that the school should include

mathematics

as a key subject in the syllabus

while

some oppose it. Both of these viewpoints will be examined in

this

essay. First of all, irrespective of the olden days, today career opportunities have flourished a lot. Surely, an aspirant can prosper in a number of fields, based on his interest, where

mathematics

is not at all desired.

For example

, for being a successful cricketer only their ability to score in the match is counted and

mathematics

has no role in it.

Additionally

, forcing a child to study an uninvolved subject just for the sake of others cannot be appreciated.

Hence

, we can say that

mathematics

-free academics

also

do no harm to us.

On the other hand

, antagonists argue that a person who wasn't taught basic

mathematics

finds it difficult to properly handle even daily transactions and can be easily fooled by others.

Additionally

, in

this

digital world, everything is online and unmindful dealings result in heavy losses.

For instance

, if one needs to purchase something they have to look through discounts, offers etc and a maths ignorant can be fooled by a skilful seller. In

this

point of view,

mathematics

being

Change the form of the verb

is

taught as a priority subject in schools can be justified.

To conclude

, a child can definitely prosper in their career with or without algebra. In future, we can expect a number of educational institutions, who may treat the chapters of

mathematics

in their academics differently, so that the parents can choose appropriately among them.
