Thoughts on using the Scratch language as an intro to programming

[QUOTE="FactChecker, post: 6201968, member: 500115"] I recently encountered the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratch_(programming_language)']Scratch programming language.[/URL] I wonder what people think of it considering some notable (IMHO) shortfalls. I do not like the way it handles comments, the lack of returned values from "functions", and some other aspects that I think should be basic. But it does seem to be a quick way to get a child interested in programming. [/QUOTE]
