okay my mom is 5'2 and my dad is 5'7. I am 16 and am 5'2, i used to be 5'0 and a half at 14 but then grew to 5'2 at 15. I am really scared that i stopped growing. Is there any chance that I may come out to be at least 5'4?

evryones got differnet opinions but I heard that we stop growing when we're 18...(??)
But dont worry Im sure you can grow a couple of inches before you turn 20.

I think you have a good chance of becoming taller. Remember to eat a varied diet. Apparently that's why the Japanese are taller in this generation. (As well as many Greeks, Spaniards, and others.) Malnutrition will definitely cause you to be short.

well. its all based on how tall ur mom and dad are. girls stop growing at age 14. so im sorry to say, that if ur 5'2, that may be as tall as you are going to get.

yes! of cource. girls keep on growing until they are 20, so dont stress, you still have time.
im 14 also and i am 5'1, so i also hope that i will grow taller.
male sure you eat right, because your body can not grow prpoerly without the needed vitamins, and other nutrients. calcium is one of the important ones.
good luck!!
