Like you said you are 14 years old....you have about 5 years more of growing ahead...and look at your uncles and cousins too...you may take some traits like they have too..you never know...do not worry too much about your size,,,,it's what's inside that counts...your friends see your inside...

Like a lot of people said it all depends, Height is just one of those weird things. My parents are both 5 feet 11 inches, my brother is 6 feet 4 inches and I am 5 feet 2 inches.
My husband is from the Philippines and he is 5 feet 7 inches, so I would guess that you'll get taller especially since boys usually get their growth spurt in their mid teen to late teen years. Hope you get what you want.

It's hard to say. You could possibly become taller than your dad. You could possibly stay just the way you are. Height is a polygenic trait, which means that it is controlled by a number of different genes. Height is difficult to predict because you could have any combination of genes from your parents. You didn't mention your gender, but girls generally stop their height growth after they are 18, while boys continue on for a few more years after 18.

You might grow a little taller but u wont grow any taller than 5'3" because u have to be in the middle of both ur parent's heights.

Filipinos are Southeast Asians,a useless ringer for Malaysians and Indonesians. Pacific Islanders are the "Natives" of Polynesia,Micronesia and Melanesia...certain there are Pacific Islanders who would have Asian useful aspects,yet they are nonetheless seen as Pacific Islanders in the adventure that they are natives.

Sure, there's no need to worry.
Normally people grow till they are 25.
Teens usually have some "height jumps"
It means they seem not to grow or grow really slowly for a quite long period of time, but afterward they can get up to 10 cm for a month.

Yes you will, guys don't stop their growth until 21, while girls stop theirs as soon as menstruation start, that's almost 5-7 years difference, that you can use the time to grow

Because of your age, I'd say you probably will. Absolutely do not try steroids and growth hormones. Those are heart attacks in the making. You probably won't ever be really, really tall, but that's okay. Enjoy who you are. Be the best person you can be. That's what we should all be doing. (-:

Because you are only 14, my guess is Yes!
get lots of sleep and eat lots of healthy food!
Nothing wrong with 5'
