  Mostly... I wonder how I hated maths at school. Now I understand that
what I hated was the system, no the things I was learning. 

  I also think that now maths can be learned in a less "abstract" way: I
myself know some teachers who use pov to graphically show maths to kids,
and they said it works pretty well to have them interested.
