Take heart. Everyone grows at their own pace. Unless both of your parents are 5'5" or shorter, you are likely to be taller than you are by the time you reach adulthood.
When I was a junior in high school, there was this freshman boy who was about 5'2". He was not only short for his age, but his face even looked like he belonged in elementary school still, even though he was 14. By the time I was a senior and he returned to school as a sophomore, he had grown several inches over the summer and was about 5'10". It does happen. I'm not saying you will grow several inches all at once, but I am saying that your body is not finished growing yet at the age of 14.
My son is now 18. When he was 14, he was also 5'5", same as you. I am also 5'4", same as your mother. My ex-husband (my son's father) is 6'2-1/2" tall, so when my son was 5'5" tall at the age of 14, she wondered if he would be closer to my height than to his father's height when he was an adult. Well, he is now an adult and he is 6 feet tall. Give it time and don't compare yourself to other guys. It's hard, I know, but just be confident and don't worry about it. You're not done growing yet!

Are you a guy or girl?
If you're a girl, you might now grow anymore
If you're a guy, I'm sure you'll grow more. It'll happen, just wait.
It sounds though like you may have had a growthspurt young. That happened to me, I was super tall when I was younger, but now I'm really short, and everybody I know is so much taller.
But I'm sure you'll grow more, just wait.

i am in the same boat as you. I am 5,5 going to be a sophmore this year. I visited an endocronologist to see what he had to say and he took an XRay of my bones which indicated that they were the size of a 12 year olds and suggested taking hormones. so i would suggest doing the same by visiting an endocronologist.

I don't know if you're going to "spurt," but most men keep growing until they're 21, whereas girls stop much earlier. You probably won't make it to 6', but you're still going to grow.

whilst i grow to be in intense college, my boyfriend hit me. i'm stunned she confessed to you -- I on no account could have. you are going to be able to desire to tell somebody else. i be responsive to this could look like "betraying" your pal, and she or he could be mad at you, even with the incontrovertible fact that it relatively is asserting her from an extremely unfavorable subject. you're doing the the main suitable option element interior the long-term and optimistically she would be able to understand. She probable would not have the capability to pass away. You get used to the abuse, you start to think of it relatively is everyday, you start to think of that is all you deserve. once I left my abusive boyfriend, he could proceed to do it at school - so which you are going to be able to desire to observe out for her. yet another element you're able to try this i think of may be the main effectual is to communicate to her. After it grew to become public that my boyfriend hit me (he hit me interior the midst of sophistication) no you will refer to me anymore - they did no longer be responsive to what to assert. That made it sense like what he grow to be doing grow to be suited, and that i grow to be the single at fault. do no longer enable her sense this manner, ever. She HAS to concentration on it or it won't in any respect get extra perfect - believe me. I make an apology for the size of the reaction, yet i do no longer want every person else to could desire to stay contained in direction of the hell I did.

you shouldn't worry about other people, you are who you are, and with time you'll grow taller.
