When I was 13 I was 5 foot even and under 100 pounds. When I graduated high school I was 5'9 145 pounds. I am now 37, have a hot wife that I've been married to for years
(and would not hardly give me the time of day in high school) am 6 feet 215 pounds. Point is, we all grow in our own time. I used to worry as well. Be happy with who you are. People are more attracted to a confident person than a tall one. Don't be arrogant, just be confident in yourself. If you are insecure people will recognize that right away and will add difficulties to your life that you don't want to deal with. Good luck to you and remember to be proud of who you are.

Plenty of time. My son grew 7 inches in 1 year at the age of 14. He is 22 and 6' 2" now.

Deal with your height, except yourself for who you really are inside. Because when everything gets right down to the Netty gritty, its the person inside of you that really counts. The outside is only a package that will get old and warn out after years of use and abuse your special, there's no one like you in the whole world, let the rest of world know how special you really are!!! And keep smiling, they'll alway wonder what your thinking?

13 is pretty young to be panicking about your size. 5'-3 1/2" really isn't that short, and your biggest growth spurt should come in the next few years. look at any group of boys your age and you will find tremendous disparities in height. you can expect to be about as tall as your older male relatives, but, in the end, there's not much you can do to overcome your own genetics.

No, you have 5 greater becoming years. some human beings advance progressively by using their years. some human beings do no longer advance plenty, then have bursts of growth of their puberty years. you have 5 greater becoming years, and 5'3" isn't short in any respect, you will maximum truly advance to greater beneficial than average top.

Don't worry. I was only 4'11 when I was 13, now at 16 I'm 5'10 and still growing. Someone being 6' at 13 is pretty rare.

You have a few years of growing ahead of you, so don't worry about it. Everyone grows at a different rate, so the ones that are taller than you now might be shorter than you when you're older.
Chill out!

Don't worry. Males still continue growing until they are well into their twenties. The growth can be gradual ( a little bit all the time) or in spurts.
You are not done growing.

Dont listen to some of these. if your parents are short then you'll stay short but its all to do with these things:
1.sleep
2.nutrients/food
3.minerals and vitamins
the more sleep you get the more you grow.
if you eat well you'll grow
Some vitamins can help your bones grow which will increase your height
