Is there a Recurve bow that would be suitable for a kid. Something with a good riser that you can change the limbs and increase poundage as the kid grows and gets stronger?
Thanks

can you adjust the draw weight with different string length?

He's 13 and stands about 5'8" or 5'9" and is plenty big. However, he doesn't have the arm strength that I think he should have at this age.No.
Your best bet would be to purchase a bow like in this link in lightweight limbs. Don't overbow your kid. My draw length, at just under 6' tall, is 27" on traditional bows.

How old is your oldest? How tall is he?
Like the guys said, "NO". String length will define brace height. Proper brace height is important to bow tune.can you adjust the draw weight with different string length?
