Dad tried to teach me how pointers worked when I was 6. When that didn't really stick, he tried flow diagrams. That seemed more fun than Barbies but I didn't come back to computers until 7 years later when we finally got one at home. I loved playing around with pictures and Word Art in MS Word so dad got me a "for dummies" book of sorts. It went downhill from there. :P
