It depends... If you havent hit your growth spurt yet it can kinda slow your body growth down a bit if you over do it, so try to take it easy. But if you've already passed your growth spurt, well then no.

No, it doesn't. It actually helps build muscle in your body, and Weightlifting is a good thing to do for your body in areas where you might feel flabby or saggy.
As with anything else, you can overdo it, but lifting weights doesn't stunt your growth. Less weight and more reps rather than trying to "bulk up" too quickly will help you stay healthy with your weightlifting.
Please see the Mayo Clinic link below for health guidelines for kids who want to lift.
