I am 13 and a half year old boy, and I am 5'3. My parents are 5'3 and 5'7. My parents are the only members of the family that are 5'7 and below and the other 99.9% of my family are 5'9 and above. I even have a 6'6 grand parent.
I have a cousin (from my mother's lil bro) that was 5'3 when he was 13 and 1/2 old too and now he is 6'0.I have a friend that was 5'0 when he was 12 but he is now 13 and he is 6'6. His parents are one inch taller than my parents. Do you think I can grow as much as them? Can I grow up to the 6 foot and above? I drink a lot of milk and vitamin C and I stretch and jump alot because I am a basket player at my school. However I lift very samll weights and dumbells that weigh no more than 5Kg(10pounds). What do u suggest?

Ok, boys or men usually mature physically at around 18-21 yrs. old. So, you have time to grow and mature both physically and mentally and emotionally. Sometimes boys have a really huge growth spurt and don't slow down for a yr. or two and others may not. Just make sure to take your vitamins, eat healthy snacks and meals often and exercise daily. You will be perfect. God made you that way. Also, you may be intrested to know that more people turn out to take back after their grandparents than do those that take back after their parents. Of course it's the luck of the gene pool anytime so, you could take back after anyone in your ancestory. No matter, as long as you are healthy and mature in all ways you should be very grateful and are blessed. Good luck and love is coming your way.

Some guys grow up until they're thirty.. so you've got a long way to go! Just hang in there.

you can't really make your grow faster, it the body's natural ablitity. so don't worry you will grow at your body's own pace. and for males they don't stop growing till they are 25. so don't worry.
