Wow, you want to learn a programming language and your parents aren't willing to buy you books? That's just wrong... if I was 14yrs old and I wanted to learn programming... my parents would have GLADLY bought me tons of books on programming.

But you never mentioned them... so I guess I can't assume... ask your parents to buy you some books. Go to a nearby University and look at some of their Introductory classes and see what books they use. Universities for the most part use good books. If you can't buy books, there are tons of sites you can google to learn programming. I'll try to give you some links later when I have more time...
