Playing with heavy weights could cause some damage.

If he sticks to lower weights with a decent amount of reps and working on major muscle groups, he should be fine. If at all possible, have him join a gym. There will be lots of people there who will gladly give him some advice when he needs it.

Most cautionary tales about lifting weights at a young age are actually about serious lifting, not about simply working out. If he trains for exercise rather than buffing up, there's no problem at all.
