everyone grows at different stages, your time will come.
just make sure you don't smoke if you're really that bothered as it supposedly stunts growth. Being small can have it's advantages!
what's your age & height?

[SpicyChippy]

13 and im 4ft 9 i think or 5,6

[iAdam]

I stand at 5,2 1/2 Not the tallest crop in the field by a long run, I'm not bothered, just don't let people give you crap for it. Make sure you can give abuse too, you'll be fine ;)

[brandon]

Tie ropes to your hands and legs, and pull!!!!

Desperate times call for desperate measures.

No I'm kidding, you'll grow.

or 5'6?? cause that's not really that small especially for a girl. You're only 13 so you def have loads of time to grow. Sum1 in my year is 16 and she's only 5ft when wearing heels but i guess that's what makes her her. I'm 'bout 5'2", 5'3" if i'm lucky and i'm 16, i don't mind it

& it mattttttt it does, in HEIGHT ways :@

edit: on scales???? don't you mean that's your weight lol

[iAdam]

Nah some scales measure height, I'm actually 5'3" It aint nothing to be worried at, I've been around 5 for the whole of my school life, and it's still been great.

Yeah same, I grew pretty quick me thinks, My family isnt tall and I'm about the same height and have been since yr 7, Although I have grown in the last few months slightly.

Funny enough, we're the same height. Yeah, you can't let insults get to you. Whenever one of my incredibly large friends insult my height I'm always prepared to go into total war to shut him up, and, I always do.

[Twist]

Bit of a difference between those two heights :P.
I'm 13 and 5'11 - wanna swap?

Give that man a coconut, I will always fight my corner, Tall people think they are superior. :P

Same, Against my family, I'm normal height, and if I'm next to my other friends i'm fine, but if I'm stood next to my lanky streak of piss friend then I look small.

no way you look smaller than me
same as above im same size as my mum so i'll prob always be this small
1 of my bfs was 6'2" or 6'3" so it kinda looked weird :D

Bad pictures are bad.

[Bun]

my girlfriend is 17 and she's about 5"2 or something like that lol. don't worry about it.

[Soy]

Apart from eating correctly and not taking drugs there's not much more you can do

[iAdam]

There's nothing wrong with it, people are getting smaller and taller, there's not many average height people anymore tbh. It'll be fine, trust us, we're from the internet. :P

[Soy]

Well, i'm 16 and 5"11. Average height for fully grown male is like 5"9 and for female its 5"6 or 5"7

[luce]

Maybe you are just destined to smallhood :)!! Vitimins may help?

[J0SH]

I only recently turnt 15 and I'm 6"1 so I guess that's quiet tall for my age, I just stretch every morning while I lie in bed, you're taller when you're in bed and shorter when you're walking because the weight pushes on your spine, so just have a good stretch every morning and it should make you grow I guess :P

Yeah your about 3cm's taller after you sleep. I could be 6" in the mornings

Yes it is true, I won every single game of sardines at school.

[J0SH]

Being tall has more advantages such as being able to have your chair in your car back and still be able to see, we can reach top shelves too :P

[fweggy]

If you do weight training, instead of bodybuilding, so lighter weights with more reps, as well as getting increase in tone/muscle mass, scientists also claim that you can add an inch or two to your final height.

Dno if its true, but its either that or stay really short.

[J0SH]

Developing muscles at a young age usually stops growth.

[VelvetClover]

You've still got a lot of time to grow. When I was 13 I wasn't as tall as I am now. But even if you don't grow much more, I wouldn't worry about it.

I'd like to be a bit shorter - I'm about 5'10 and I wear heels and I'm about 6'0-6'1!! Lol

[RedStratocas]

i'm 5'8'' which is apparently supposed to be average in the u.s., but it sure as hell doesnt feel like it. i feel like the large majority is taller. not that im REALLY short or anything but it does kinda bother me sometimes.

but whatever. unfortunately, there isnt much you can do. height is almost completely up to genetics, you can only grow a few more inches depending on the foods you eat. if youre really super concerned, stay away from sugar, eat fruits and veggies and milk, and dont smoke. thats about it.

[camera]

drink lots of milk. dno if it rly works lol.

[,Jess,]

You might grow a lot. Like when I was like 14 I think I was 5'6" and was really tall compared to my friends. Then I never grew in height anymore but they all did and now quite a few overtook me and caught up, like already said people grow at different times.

[Lee.Norman]

You will grow in time. I hated being small. I was the smallest in my class up until the age of 15. And I was really small. But then out of nowhere I started to grow, and now Im 6ft. Not excessively tall, but about average. Which if fine.
Everyone grows at different times, and your time will come.

[BeanEgg]

Drink lots of milk, and don't do sit-ups!! That will slow growth a lot.

[Japan]

IS your mum really tall? Because apparently kids are meant to become the same height or slightly taller than they mother.
Probably not true, but it's given me hope (My mums really tall =P)

[cocaine]

lmao its weird because my parents are both shorter than me, im only around 5ft 8. My grandmas quite tall, shes 5ft 7 and shes 80-odd - I'm not sure how the genetics on that one works :P Maybe my dad has the recessive 'tall' gene (:

[Crimson]

You can have hormones but there are some serious side affects. I'm diabetic and, stupidly without realising, I was abusing it for the past 2/3 years and now I've stopped growing (at 15). I'm about 5'8 / 5'9 - and I was debating whether to have the hormones injected because I was predicted to be 6'3 before I started ******* up my diabetes, but I'm around average I think, so I didn't.

I think you can only have the hormones when you're like 18 tho (but my 'bone age' was 19 - I.E growth rates. So it was possible for me to have it), but I think you could see you GP and inquire about it. But like I said, apparently there are strong rates of side affects that are very damaging.

[AgnesIO]

You'll go through puberty and have a growth spurt at some point!

I am 14 and 5ft 7.

[Herman]

You shouldn't let your height bug you, be proud of it ;)

I'm 15 and 6ft, due to genetics of course. Both my parents are tall, but now I am taller than both of them :P I have been 6ft for the past 2 years or so. Therefore, I probably won't grow anymore.

[:Technical]

All I can say is eat healthily, usually small people to shoot up throughout the years. I was 6ft 3 when I was 14. I'm now 25 and I'm 6'10 .. not much difference eh?

[Abbie.]

steal some of my height, im 5'10 and hatee being tall :(

I think you mean 5ft whatever unless you're a black basketball player.

[paul4wolves]

13 and im 4ft 9 i think or 5,6

LOL, thats a big difference

If your 13 and normal i think you would be 4ft 9 not 5ft 6

No, no, I'm a white rugby player.
