Well my dad is 5'4" and my mom is either most likely 5'2", i just want to know if their is still a chance for me to grow, I'm 17 barely and I'm 5'9" (barefoot) and my 16 year old sis is 4'11" and my little 7 (in jan. 30) is 4'.
Do I still have a chance? What's something that will give me little growth push? It would be cool if i grew a bit taller really good if it's 6'.
Please ask for any additional details, I'm mexican by the way...

No, there is nothing that will help you grow anymore. This question is posted on here SO many times a day from guys. You still have a year or two to grow. Maybe another inch. But you may be 5'9". There are no exercises, no foods, no drugs, vitamins, supplements devices....nothing that will make you any taller. It's in your genes. If you are 5'9" and your parents are 5'2" and 5'4" then you are really luck already!

Your tall for a Mexican, there are a bunch of Mexican men who do the yard work where i live and they are like 5 ft. flat. You are lucky to be 5'9, given your parents heights.

you may still grow. Sadly there isn't anything that you can do to "make you grow taller" just keep drinking your milk and eating a balanced diet. And you are tall considering your parents height.
just remember: it isn't how tall you are, its how big of a person you are. :be a good person and no one will care how tall you are.
