Because it's hard.

Mathematics is not any more difficult than any other subject. Everything takes practice to be good at it.

I'll take a stab at guessing why mathematics is VIEWED as difficult. It's the abstract portion of it that many people tend to think about when you bring up the term "mathematics".

Many people have no difficulty with mathematics when it comes to adding up dollar bills and coins to pay for something. It's only when you remove mathematics from the real world that people start to get flustered. Basically, mathematics at this point is not difficult, but merely foreign. Think about something you find difficult. Is is really difficult, or it is just foreign to you?
