Not everybody gets growth spurts at the same time. Your time will come.
If you keep healthy and eating right you will reach your genetic potential (be at least as tall as your ancestors) and be as tall or taller than most of the other kids.

It's a combination of environment (what you eat, health care, etc.), your genes and what you do to enhance your natural growth (meds). Since you have not gone thru puberty, you still have a lot of growing ahead of you. You will continue to grow until your early 20's. There's nothing you can do about your genes. However, with meds you can enhance your growth. But, unless you are abnormally small for your age, it's not usually done. So, relax and just let it happen naturally.

how tall are your parents? depending how tall they are, you may possibly exeed them...depending if you play sports at your age. seriously, if you play basketball, play tennis or go jogging (sports where you use your legs a lot)...you will grow by leaps and bounds. also have patience....literally speaking, once you do hit puberty you will be growing practically overnight. you'll find yourself stumbling all the time because the balance in your brain isn't used to the new immediate height.

It's an issue with your pituitary glands.They aren't firing out the hormones like they should. See a homeopathic practitoner. This is not uncommon. There's a kid in my class who has a 7'4" cousin, but he's 5'0".

If you do this, you should start to grow right away.
