Yes you can damage your body because you're not fully developed yet. Your body is still growing. Just take it easy!!
Answer #1 I agree with. Unless you're under expert coaching you should *not* do Weight Training till you are aged 16 plus.
Meantime what you can do, even though you are using your own body weight, are Press-ups and even Push-ups. With the former you only lift up the torso from the arms & waist, whereas with the latter your toes balance you while you use the arms only to push upwards.
Life experience.
