There's no way to influence your height. However, if you're a girl and past the age of fourteen and puberty, it's unlikely that you'll grow much more. Girls' bone growth speeds up for the two or three years before they reach puberty, then slows way down.

I don't think so. I can't imagine why you would want to be short anyway.
I am 5' 2" and it sucks. Absolutely everything I buy has to be shortened. Even
most of the petite garments are too long for me. One of the most exciting dates I ever had was with a basketball player. His step must have covered a distance of at least 4'. You can imagine how much going to a dance just didn't work our.

Why in the world would you want to do that??? I wish you had said how tall you are. I am 5' 8" and in high school the boys were short because they don't grow as fast as girls. I wished I wasn't so tall too. But then later I find that clothes , jeans, long skirts, long clingy ball gowns look so elegant on a tall woman. When they walk into the room ...all heads turn to gaze at them. And all the short , squat women are in envy. Stand up straight and be proud and beautiful.

Sure.
Stop eating string beans right away. Spagetti is another no-no. All those foods are long and skinny. They will make you long and skinny also. When you cut through the farmer's field next door, make sure that you have galoshes or ruber shoes on your feet so that you do not get any fertilizer on your feet. Fertilizer will make your feet and legs grow big.
When you sit, try not to let your legs hang down or they will stretch out even longer than they are now. Always put them over your head to get them to grow shorter.
When you stand around doing nothing, stand on one leg. Keep all your weight on that leg so that it doesn't get any longer. After a while switch to the other leg.
it helps to carry weight on your head also. Try to get something that is always pushing you back down and stopping your growth upward. I like to carry a brick inside my baseball cap. that works pretty good.

Unfortunately, no, there is no way to ensure that you stay short. I've always wanted to be taller(I'm 5'4") but I know that nothing can make that dream come true.

No nothing you can do so you can't get taller. I'm 5'8 and I enjoy my height. Plus did you know most models are over 5'9...nothing wrong with being tall =)

how old are you?
if you can grow, then keep growing
be taller like 5'5 or 5'6 is the best height for a girl

Nope, your height is written in your genetic code. Love who you are on the inside, not on the outside. That is what counts!!
