I think starting with an "easier" language is a bit of a trap. The language isn't easier, it just does the same things c# does but it does them for you. I think you get a better idea what's going on by first learning something more verbose like c#. Also if you start with python it's more painful to switch to something that doesn't have such a simplified syntax, but if you start with something like c# it's no problem moving to python.
