I think Java is a decent language.. I learned C++ before Java, so I still tend
to feel like Java is lacking in some ways (Java doesn't have multiple inheritance or direct ways of freeing memory, for instance). Some years ago, I
saw that colleges were teaching Java as a first language for a while and then went back to teaching C/C++ as a first language.

I think you should either teach them C,C++ or Java as the first language
but don't go to high-level or "easy" like Python (in some cases the
Python system is confusing too but yeah - the C,C++ and Java are solid learning points for a new comer - like me).
