has an old (but still relevant) discussion of this.
I got interested at 11, wanting to make games, but my expectations (and those of my friends, particularly) were far too high. It wasn't until I was 15 or so and got interested in the function of computers and mathematical logic that I really learned anything.

Edit: I started in Python and Pygame at 11, continued Python at 15 and then got into Clisp.
