first of all, there is nothing wrong with being short. being too tall makes buying clothes harder, and i hear its sometimes annoying to tower over other people. plus, women tend to continue growing longer than boys. if you are still under 20, dont worry, you still have a lot of growth time left

you can't make yourself grow taller.
depending on your age you will probably grow more. girls are around 20 when they reach their height and boys are around 21-23. and everyone is different some people keep growing into their 20's and some people stop growing early.
think of people you know ( cousins, siblings and friends) that around that age and take notice of their height and think about them a year or two ago di they look the same . and remember you get what you are born with.

Mostly its genes but u might gain up to 5 extra centimetres (dont know how much that is in inches) if u eat properly. milk, dairy products and fresh vegetables (yes, ur mom is right) should help. Also, sports like volleyball, or basketball, even yoga and streching excercises help.

Dont worry your little self I am 19 and 5ft 6ish and sometimes get asked for ID for fags. when i go to clubs I have to take my passport! so do what I did and learn to love being short. And you know what they say all good things come in small packages.

nothing can make you grow. all i can say is eat, drink, and live healthy and that should help. but in the mean time, try wearing heels to make yourself look taller.

I heard of something called "Hightmax, 1-800-growtal", some supplement or something. But I can't help but think of chicken steroids when I hear their add.

A common answer when I was young was put some horse **** in your shoes, it makes anything grow.

Drink milk. Eat red meat if you can do so without getting in trouble.
