Poll: Was one of your parents a programmer?

I first learned to program from my father when I was about 5 years old, so it's hard for me to imagine learning to program without someone nearby to answer all the incidental questions we have when we are first learning.

I am wondering if most people here had a parent or another immediate family member who introduced them to programming. If not, how did you get started?
