Answer 1

you might be shrinking

Answer 2

I'm 15 and I'm 5'2 1/2". That's not too tall either. I know I'm done growing though since I haven't grown in 3 years. But if this is encouraging at all, my mom ended up going from 5'3" to 5'4" after she was married (which was about 26/27). I know plenty of people at age 15 and they're about 4'10"-5'0". It's not bad. Plus, guys tend to like shorter girls. And also, if you're short, you have the choice between wearing flat shoes and heels =] Tall people don't have much of a choice because if they wear heels then they're too damn tall.

Answer 3

You will be as tall as you are suppose to be. Be you. Let go of your worry on matching others height.You are unique and special just the way you are.When i was a boy,i was concerned that most of the males in my family had flat stomachs and i didn't. We all played sports in and out of school,rode our bicycles from town to town,worked at home and on other jobs,ate the same foods yet they were lean and mean but i wasn't. As an adult of course i understand that genetics plays a great role and depending on which side of the gene pool you draw from you can have the fat or lean gene.I learned to be the best me that i can be. I've done bodybuilding,aerobics,martial arts,ran marathons/relay races,dancing,cliff diving,camping,mountain climbing,hiking etc... Peace be with you.

Answer 4

As long as your feet reach the ground you are tall enough :) You need to look at the height of your parents to judge how tall you will probably be. I stopped growing at 12 (5'7") my sister was barely 5' at 12 and didn't stop growing until she was 20 (5'11") Our parents are 5'10" and 6', as you can see we are all similar heights, though I am the shortest, even shorter than my mother!

Answer 5

I think most girls grow until like 20. You may not get much taller, but 5" is not that short. God made you that way, so be happy with it. Try wearing heels if you want to be taller.

Answer 6

Try to grow taller by taking a lot of jumping exercise. And wear heels when you go out because the modern society favours tall, slim ladies and girls and not short thingamabob!

Answer 7

There is nothing wrong with being short. I am alot older than you and I am only 5 feet tall and I have a friend who is a couple of years younger than I and she is only 4'11. Be proud of who you are and don't let anyone put you down for being short. I am proud of being short even though my 9 year old son is a foot shorter than me.

Answer 8

I think that you grow until your 19 or 20 years old, you might grow but I think you'll only grow a couple of inches thats It. My cousin Is 22 and she Is 5'1, you might just be a short person, there's nothing wrong with that. If you have alot of concerns then ask your parents to take you to your doctor and ask him/her. I hope my answer was able to help you out. =^..^=

Answer 9

It's okay to be what you call short. I have a 16-year-old cousin who is around your height and I'm 5'6 and only 14! And I'm way taller than her!
Don't take it seriously, people are special if their short. God made you that way, don't take it seriously as I said. I'm in a tall family, one of my friends, are in a short and medium family.

Answer 10

my mom is 5 feet and that was the way she was all thru high school.....guys and gurls that were shorter than her in her freshman year grew to be taller than her in senoir year.....if both of ur parents r short then u prolly won't grow much much but if ur parents r tall or one of them is then u will prolly grow much taller....ur just a late bloomer thats all......and i promise u that u'll gain more weight as u get taller.....u prolly just have high metabolism (that or u don't eat enough lol)

hope this helps!!!!! :)

Answer 11

Eat right, stay fit. So long as you do those things you will reach your maximum potential according to predetermined genetics.

I'd say you should be more concerned about your grammar and communication skills.

You're just fine, not all people are tall, we come in all shapes and sizes. People like you because of the person you are, not because of your looks or hight. It just seems they do in highschool, in real life things are different.

You'll survive :)
