So if my mom is 5'0 and my dad's 5'3 is there a possibility I may grow taller than 5'3?
1. My older brother is 5'7
2. Older Sisters 5'4
3. I'm 13 at 5'0

Of course! There are many factors to determining height, including nutrition.

Yes, it is possible. My mother is 5 ft 4 in and I am 5 ft 6 in. My father is 5 ft 10 in and my brother is 6 ft 1 in. You may be taller than your mom. But don't bet on it being more than an inch or two. If you have tall people in your background you may be an exception but likely not.

At 13, you are still growing.
My parents were both the shortest people in their families. My Dad was 5' and my Mother was 5'1" and I am 5'6". I have a sister that is 5', a sister that is 4'11" and another sister 5'4"
I always wanted to be shorter because I was always the tallest. Some people used to ask my parents if I was adopted and that hurt, then.

The general rule of thumb is that you will be about 3" - 4" taller than the average height of your parents.

Absolutely. My family is truth to that. I have a sister 4'6" and a brother 6'6" and the other 6 of us are somewhere in between. Dad is 5'*8 and mom is 5'5".

Yes it is possible. Most people are not finished growing until their late teens. which means you have around 5 or 6 more years so grow. You will probably experience another growth spurt or two.

Sure, my ex is 5' 11 and both his parents are shorter than 5 feet.
The son that we have together is 6'2 right now and he's only 16. I don't know where this height is coming from.

Woman you're too humorous. But something day you ovulated and whatever individual you slept with on that day, is more than likely the father. However why do to paternity experiment. Do one on the one you slept with on that day. Either he is or he isn't. And that will only leave one other individual, If those have been the only TWO you really slept with.

Yes its possible, both of my parents are short and everyone in my family is also short but im 5'8.
I didnt start growing until I was about 15 so dont worry about it just yet, everyone is different.
