That depends on if your talking about safety or legal terms with twitter. As someone else already posted twitter wants you to be over 13. As far as safety a young person should be careful what they post. It is readable by anyone and you wouldn't want them putting things that could endanger them. From a parents point of view i would let my kid but i would monitor it.

Yeah, she *should* be over 13, but I'd just get your parents, or yourself, to monitor on what's she's putting up there if she makes one. There are alot of weird people lurking around twitter so I'd make it private just incase, and keep an eye on the people who are trying to contact her...
My sister has Twitter, and she's 11, but rarely uses it.
