Me and my dad had an argument last night about when is the youngest you can start lifting as a growing boy... I said that at 11yrs old you could start lifting...but my dad disagrees and thinks 14yrs old you should start...what do you think....

I'd say kids should be doing own body weight stuff, core exercises and such like. When they get to like 12 yrs old or when puberty gas started then I don't see a problem with high rep strict control lifting.
No 4-6 rep sets till like 16-16 yrs old depending on growth and always plenty stretching
