> I believe children ages 13-17 are able to use twitter.

Based on all research available so far Social networks make the life of teenagers worse. So your belief is not supported by anything.

Just from my own experiences on the net as a teen where jokes about self-harm and suicide were extremely common -- One of those reasons could be because social media is not doing enough to protect children from this type of toxic content. Obviously the deleted tweet here is on the "could be harmless" end of the spectrum of that though.
