Okay, at this age, I don't think we should worry about kids being tied to one platform.

In 10 years we don't know what language or platform is going to dominate, let alone by the time kids grow up.

The point is to learn any language to get some basic concepts down and then branch out.

Many people on this forum probably cut their teeth on Commodore 64 Basic but we're not laughing at them for platform lock in.
