Why start with OOP? (Score 1)

I don't see why everyone seems to think that people should start learning with OO languages/concepts. OO design is great if it happens to fit what your doing, but the truth is, in many situations, it just doesn't. When people begin learning to program by having classes and objects shoved down their throats, they begin to think that this is the only way to do things. Learning it later on, after already understanding some other design concepts could teach people to actually think before making something into a class.
