I teach programming to a lot of students as well as handle 2-3 web app projects/2-3 desktop apps at a time. From my experience, new developers do miss a lot of things when they start programming in C++. Something like Java/C->pointers really teaches them basics pretty well!! As for Ruby, I have personally seen 10th std students learn Ruby from scratch and implement a RoR blog in less than a week (4 days to be exact)...
But like I always say, "the language is only as good as the programmer!!" So it completely depends on the programmer's nature and outlook towards programming. I love all programming languages and I use each one of those depending on the project requirement. But I just shared my experience on new programmers!!
