Well, yeah. It's IT: the whole story about a child-eating monster.
However, unlike the previous adaption, the first child killed is portrayed as graphically as in the book.
He has his arm torn off and is then dragged into the sewer by his ankles, screaming and crying.

A crowd of all ages are killed off screen- implied children deaths.
Not a death but similar: A teenager is brutally maimed by an animal while a younger child watches on in terror.

Teenagers die more often than young kids but both do die, often violently or on-screen at least, this I suppose also goes for ghost kids which are sometimes 'killed' to dispel their spirit.

All the kids die, in multiple different timelines even. Death is treated very lightly in this, and although the majority come back in a form of god tier, a good portion only live on as spirits (which in turn, die as well).

Some might argue technically no, but for the sake of trigger warning, yes. (Major story spoilers) Most of the characters are revealed to be approximately 18 years old near the end of the story, but that doesn't mean much when throughout the entire game they themselves and the player believe they're 16 or so years old.

One of the central plot point is the death of a teenager, and how other character react to it. One of the "neutral" endings involves a major teenager character commit suicide, another involves the main character (a teenager) committing suicide, and one of the bad endings involves the main character accidentally fatally stabbing themself.
