okay, i'm 14 and around 166cm. i feel really short, although i am taller than the majority of my classmates, i still want to be taller. is there any way that i can grow? my parents aren't that tall, so it's very unlikely that i'll grow any taller naturally....=( i'm just wondering if there is anyway that i can grow taller without surgery (i heard that we can get surgery to make ourselves taller, but that's just too creepy) so please HELP ME!!!!

I searched this a while ago. Certain foods help you. the way you breath, the postions you sleep too. Sorry I forgot the site. It had yoga pictures to stretch your back. If i find it I'll send it to you.

The fastest results for appearing taller is to wear your hair styled up near the crown of your head. Short skirts and shoes without straps across the top of the foot give your legs a longer appearance.

Sorry to say, but you're most likely stuck with what you're given. Max out your nutrients (like calcium, vitamins, and other minerals) and try not to eat too much inorganic meat (it has horomones that may screw up your body). Although some of it is growth horomones, I doubt it would synergize with your natural growth.
Try playing basketball and other jumping exersizes. I hear they help too, to an extent.

No man is so tall that he never need stretch and none to small that he never need stoop
- Danish proverb
Don't worry about it. Height is not something you can change much. Eat healthy foods, and you'll be just fine. You're taller than I am, and I'm 22. I've had no problems with being short.

You don't need to get taller, theres just no reason unless you plan on playing in the WNBA. Case closed. Thank you and have a goodnite.
