Be happy with what you get. Make the best of it. You still may
have a growth spurt in you. If not, enjoy yourself just the way
you are. Not everyone is 5'10" and not everyone is even 5'1".
Height tends to run in families (I think). If your Mom is taller and
your Dad is tall- you may get another inch or two taller. But, be
happy. It's not like you can take human growth hormones to
change it.
Good luck.

Not to me! Sure, you have friends who are taller. You may be one of the shortest 16 year olds you know, but if that's the hand you were dealt, celebrate your petite stature and enjoy it. Short can be cute.

No way, I know an 18 year old who's shorter than me, and I'm the same size as you.

It is below average but within the normal range.

My best friend is your height...and she's 35...you cannot control your height so like the height you are...average height for females is around 5'4" I think...5'2" and under are considered "petite"...

Everybody is different. Isn't it nice? We aren't photocopies of each other.
