Well, at some point, most people do stop growing, but for those who are very short, and self conscious about it, there actually is a very painful operation you can undergo which can make you like 6 inches taller, but it involves breaking bones, so it depends on how badly you want to be taller, I guess.

You can't get taller at "ANY AGE". At some point you stop growing; that is the natural state of things. However, you can shrink as you get older. You can read up on osteopathy especially if you are Caucasian or Asian although no race is immune. You lose bone density. You can easily identify those who suffer from such. The hunched shoulders and stooped backs in older folk.
So eat your foods rich in calcium, take you vitamins and get into the habit of doing strength exercises. it is never too late.

the pituitary gland secretes the growth hormone for us to grow taller
when u hit your peak height, you wont grow any taller. that's because the epiphysial plate of your bones are already closed.
in some conditions where the pituitary gland continues to secrete huge amounts of growth hormone, the result would be acromegaly. your bones would not grow longer, but wider. that means you'll have a square face and big hands and feet and look just gruesome...

It's not idiotic. But everyone is different when it comes to growth. There are averages. ppl usually don't grow taller once they've hit their peak, but you know, again individualize. Some ppl have conditions where they do keep growing.
