I've always read that both girls and boys should be pretty much fully grown before doing any serious weight training because otherwise you could damage the growing bones and stuff. Doing really light weight training is probably different, like working out with 3 pound weights (for girls) or 5 lbs. for boys or something. I think the more intense weight work is better started later.
