there is nothing you can do to grow taller, its all based on genetics. you still have a few more years to grow so you shouldnt really be worried about it..

You should drink milk. It sounds silly, but my cousin grew 3 inches by drinking it. Also no soda!! Which may be hard, but just try to cut out just food. Since you still have 3-5 years of growing left, you should take advantage now, so you will be taller later. Though since you parents are tiny, you probably won't be much taller then 5'9-5'10 at the most if your lucky.
