It doesn't matter which language, any form of programming taught to kids is going to be beneficial. It is not the coding part which is important but it is THE WAY a programmer thinks which is. Inculcating such thinking will make the next generation better thinkers and better problem solvers. I am fully supportive of teaching coding to kids and making it part of the curriculum in schools.

Computers have now become ubiquitous, better get used to them ASAP.
