i am 13 and i'm 5'6.5. i havent grown much since january of this year. i've only grown half an inch. i am worried that i will not grow anymore. my parents are 5'5 and 5'7, how tall will i be? both my siblings are taller than me, my brother is 6'0 and my sister is 5'7, how come i'm so short? when my brother was my age he was taller then my dad already and im still slightly shorter than my dad, why is it taking me longer, will i grow at all? how do i grow taller and wat do i do to speed up the process?

yeah no doubt you'll grow taller, i remember the boys at school used to be way shorter than us girls right up til they bout fifteen, then suddenly they grew way taller, even the real short ones often end up growing real tall...i think you just need time there's not much else you can do about it, because your brother and sister is tall i'm sure you will be too

you arent THAT short. yes youre short but not like EXTREMELY short.

you will grow eventually.

whats sad is that i used to be like the tallest in my class when i was little, but then after the 8th grade, i stopped growing. so now, i am 14 and im 5'6 and i wont grow any taller than that. ever

you are young you can still grow ..you have until age of 21, i think you future height will be 5'7-5'8, but don't worry if you keep a healthy diet , do different kinds of sports you and drink milk , you can go higher like 5'9 (hopefully), but my calculations tells me that you'll be 171.5cm ,it could be wrong, but it was right for most people

yeah u will still grow more. guys take longer to grow. guys reach their growth spurt when they are around 17 while girls hit it around 14. u will continue to grow until ur about 21.
