Same for me. I did some basic and pascal in school, but today I wouldn't 
regard that as real programming. I started learning C/C++ when I was 25, but 
my main learning period was when I did a real large-scale project with 27+. I 
learned all the things that can go wrong ;-) Today I'd say that 
object-oriented programming like in C++ helps more against these faults than 
structured programming in C. 
I don't think age matters and my experience is, that 14 year old boys often 
want to show off themselves and that they can talk a lot of rubbish ;-) What 
really matters is, that you don't only study books but do real projects.

Welcome to the project :-)
