Youth mortality data isn't available yet for 2022 and 2023. However, looking at 2020 and 2021, the claim is true only if you're considering deaths of children and teens between the ages of 1 and 19. By capping the age range at 17, you'd have a different result. https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/03/29/guns-leading-deaths-children-us/
