You may have been raised properly since you don’t get what I mean. I really envy kids with “Chinese parents” that had them learn math early on and not some bullshit like that if you put your tooth under your pillow, then a tooth fairy will come.

I think those 2 are orthogonal. Math still works with Santa or the tooth fairy.

Maybe math works but critical thinking doesn’t. There are people who have lived for many decades without ever questioning insane b.s. they were taught as kids.

It is possible to have learned both things you know.

I had to learn maths early (not chinese or asian) and also a bunch of scary stories to make me behave. I would have been glad to learn about fairies.
