I'm 5' 5" I'm 15 years old. My mom is 5'6" and my dad is 6'2". My grandparents were all average/short. But my moms grandmother was very tall, and my dads grandfather was very tall.
I have a size 9 shoe.
I really want to be 5'9"
Do you think I will get taller? or am I done growing?

You're at the far end, but who can say? I knew a guy who was 16 and had a dramatic growth spurt, growing six inches in four months

If you haven't grown an inch for a some time then you're just experiencing growth gap. This is normal in adolescents and younger kids, even in young adults. All you have to do is to get more nutrition into your body by eating healthy and getting enough exercise. Never skip meals. It could be in your genes to be tall so don't lose hope. Just take good care of your body and follow recomendations for proper nutrition.

If you a girl in my opinion ur already tall enough...and most kids by age 14-16 are within 2-3 inches of how tall they will be when done growing. If ur a chick then its not bad for u ur plenty tall but if ur a guy ur screwed lol im 14 and 5'7" guy so im screwed also lol

Women tend to grow until about a year after they first get their period. After that they may grow a couple of inches, but usually no more.

I think women stop growing at about 18, so you might shoot up another inch or 2 before you turn 18.

you have a year and a half maybe two years before you stop growing completely. you should know that you will not grow too much more during this period maybe an 1" or 2".

You'll grow until 18 years of age. But perhaps not that much.
