There are tradeoffs in all of the language systems, but helping at competitions I rarely see practical limitations due to language choice I do deal with more LabView programming problems than other languages at competitions, but that is because newer teams tend to select it, not because LabView is innately bad.

I'm like Alan background-wise, and migrated our team to C++ primarily because I didn't have time to learn/teach LabView in the first year I was involved. We have a good training program for teaching kids the basics of C++ -- there's a lot of the language that you don't need to know.

If you're just starting out with mentoring FRC programming, have no experience with WPILib, know one of the languages, and your team doesn't have a preference, then I'd go with the language you know. It's one fewer thing to learn during the build season.
