Calculators - Pros & Cons

The pros of a calculator is that
1) they help you with math if you dont know an answer.
2) give you all answers
3) 

But the cons are
1) sometimes i only use calculators and dont even try to do the math myself
2) sometimes dont know remember what multiplys by what
3) i always think i need one.

In elementary school, i was only allowed to use calculators once in awhile whenever he said that we were Allowed. So i dont really rely on them.. They are good when you need them or dont know an answer but other then that i dont need them.

Math in your life

For example ..
If i worked at Mc.Donalds or a store. Math would affect me because i would need to learn about money and with awesome teachers i of course already know how to count but theres several ways that math could affect me or if i was working at a pizza place , i would probably need to know my fractions because if someone told me to cut it a certain way then i would know how because i would remember fractions.
There are several jobs that include math with it.

Math.. Whats up with that?

What is up with math is that i always struggled through elementary school .
I was probably the worst at math even though i had an amazing teacher. He was amazing at teaching which kind of helped me but in some math things like fractions i suck at. I really want to get better. I also suck at taking tests..it gets me nervous and i cant think very well if i know theres a test ..I wish my mark was higher and im willing to do whatever it takes to get it as high as i possibly can get it. I think learning with videos is easier because you can pause it and with a teacher you cant do that.
