I guess that is...

...to appreciate languages like XHTML, CSS, Java and Processing and while I know how to code in C++, I tend to stay away from it because Java has spoiled me with the lack of pointers and no need to deleting allocated memory.

Instead of saying "This is too hard", I want them to ask "Why is this too hard, and how can I fix my shortcoming?".... I like to teach by learning together. There may be things that I do not know. The challenge isn't to know everything but...
