No. It helps it.

Weight lifting can cause growth problems. When lifting weight, it causes the muscles to expand and get bigger. When muscles gets too large here's where the problem starts because the needs to grow while to muscles expand so that's why weight lifters try to maintain that. There's something also called Vital capacity which is very important for weight lifters to consider and know what to do.

It can if you lift to much and overdo it.

There is in fact no evidence that Weightlifting can stunt growth. This is a common misconception that stems from the belief that weightlifting increases hormone levels, which it does, but only by a negligible amount. This belief caused people to think that the raised hormone levels would cause the premature closure of the growth plates. This is not a worry as the very small difference in hormone levels caused by weightlifting will in no way affect your growth.
