Yes, absolutely, but we're talking about teenagers. I've no doubt they're capable of learning multiple languages. But teenagers are most constrained by the limited time they have available for extra curricular activities. If I was to teach interested kids a second language (and I'd like to), then it would probably be lower level so kids can learn about memory management etc.

I guess I did not explain myself well. the way I understand what you are saying is let's not teach them gdscript but TS instead. the rationale is, so they can do webdev also.

but my impression of the godot community is a lot of gdscript,some C#. So they would not easily be growing in the godot community and make games.

as for teenagers learning new languages, if i remember my teens, 200 years ago, learning new computer things was a thrill, not a chore.

and like I said earlier, I see the habit of picking up a new language a wonderful skill.

hope it is clearer. good luck with your quest of teaching kids to make their own games with godot.
