I think this was asked by someone already, but I do wonder. I think it would be cool if my sister joined the Fediverse (but blocked NSFW content). She is a high school freshman, but I can’t have her join an instance where you must be an adult.

I do have friends on other social medias that are 13+ with their teen siblings making an account to follow them, but what are the rules here??

Most people will likely agree that 13 is too young, but it kind of depends on her maturity level too. I had unfettered internet access from about that age and I don't think it messed me up too bad... Lol.

Anyway, I don't really think there's many instances, if any, geared towards younger audiences. Maybe Beehaw would be a tamer one to look at?

If I recall correctly beehaw is the one that federates with nearly no one right? If that's the one I also think that would be most appropriate. They have good moderation and are safe space by design so this would be least problematic.

Not sure, I just know their guidelines are supposed to be more strict in general.
