Contrary to popular belief, lifting weights while you are still growing does not stunt growth. It was believed that breaking a bone could damage the ends of the bones that are still growing, but this is not the case. Strength training has only benefits, if done correctly, whether you are young or old.

Heavy lifting will not stunt your growth. Your growth depends mainly upon eating a good diet. Smoking cigarettes is known to stunt the growth of a child, mainly because it reduces appetite and so leads to an inadequate diet.
If "kids" means children under 15, there is great potential for joint injuries due to their immature bones. Furthermore, many children lack the disciplined coordination to use proper weight training technique on various lifts-and that can cause injuries to connective tissues (ligaments and tendons) as well as strained muscles.
