There's all kinds of material out there- but there's no substitute for a live instructor. I've played and taught on the side, and the two main reasons that beginners lose interest are unplayable, cheap, 'student' instruments, and no one to play with.
You don't have to shell out the $25 a week for the half-hour lesson from the hung-over metalhead at the music store. THere are alternatives- find someone in the neighborhood, set up an informal arrangement-you don't have to meet at the same time evry week-you can always trade babysitting or lawnmowing for lessons-my brother did that when we were growing up. If you're near a college with a music department, call and ask -there are always students trying to earn some extra money.
Another idea is a local church with a contemporary music group- relatively wholesome environment, and almost always, at least one of the musicians teaches on the side.
Also when you have the basics down-can play a few chords, read basic music, get together with someone who's at about your skill level , share the music to a few songs, familiarize yourself with the material, and meet and work on the song together, alternating on the melody, chords, etc. You'll both get real good real fast. Music is a social activity-if you're trying to do it alone, you won't go very far. Good Luck!

Try searching "Guitar Lessons" "Guitar Chords" and "Fingerpicking" on Google, you'll learn a lot on acoustic.
