i'm 5'8'' and i'm a 16-year-old girl...i've known tons of guys who were shorter than me when i was 13...but trust me...when they got older they just seemed to grow non stop and soon they were way taller than me...just relax and your time will come too

You are only 13 years old and if your parents are taller than you it is probably fairly safe to say that within the next five years you will have your growth spurt.
I was 5ft2 when I was your age and I'm now 6ft1 after my growth spurt.
Doctors do, however, some times adminster growth hormones to vertically challenged teenagers but only as a very last resort as the side effects are potentially very damaging.
I shouldn't worry about being taller at the moment, if you can... i know that nature might seem unfair wait a few years and see what happens....

I've heard that if you hang on a bar for 2 min every day, you will get taller.Anyway, most boys develop at 14-16 years, i don't think that you should be so desperate! I have a friend who's 14 years old, has 5'1 and he's the best basketball player in his team, so size doesn't really matter if you have a dream. :)

two main ways to get taller- sleep longer- sleeping for a good solid 8 hours will make you taller for the first couple of hours of the day before you shrink
Go into space- reduced effect of gravity actually makes you perminantly taller. Neil armstrong is very tall for this reason

You will have a growth spurt when you reach the end of puberty.
One way that I've seen work is eating two eggs per day for about one month. You should grow by about 10-15 centimetres.

You can get some growth hormone on the black market. It should work since you are still growing...if all else fails then I suggest you go to china.Get your legs broken. They'll insert pins and pull it every week. It's painful but you'll grow permenantly.

You are still growing however if you are affraid of being short, your doctor should be able to estimate with reasonable accuracy how tall you are expected to become. If you don't like that number, have some human growth hormone prescribed....but it's fairly expensive.

you will still grow quite a lot, you have another growth spurt to go yet, and that will put on several inches.
