that's a pretty biased assumption. javascript is a perfectly fine language to learn to code in, especially given its prevalence and penetration. there's some weirdness to it, yes, but every language has its quirks.
I personally feel that Javascript is a language that you move into when you properly understand primitive programming constructs. I think this because if you start with Javascript, every other language will make you feel crazy and lost since you can't override internal structures, protected primitives and definitions, on top of the fact that "object-oriented" Javascript is almost as laughable as it is frustrating. There was an article on the front page here just recently that was along the lines of "x tips to being a better Javascript programmer." It just confirmed my choice to not have a career involving Javascript.
