WhatsApp age rating

DS is starting secondary school in September. He'll be getting a phone. Most of his year 6 have phones already and have a WhatsApp group set up. I know he's going to want to join it but I also know that WhatsApp's age rating is going to be raised to 16 - does anyone know why? I normally don't let him get apps that aren't for his age group but am not sure what the problem is with WhatsApp.

I wouldn't allow other social media but think whatsapp is ok - just check the group chats and messages yourself.
