I'm 18 and i'm 5"6..I was shorter than you
at 15, so there are others, and similarly
I can't stand being small, and is more
difficult being male when there is
pressure to have a larger and more
imposing body, but by the end of
development, your body will be visibly
mature, whether you are of a great hulking
height or not.

If it relates to you, really athletic
people are sometimes prone to growing
slower than the average kid, but they also
continue to grow for a lot longer. By
really athletic I mean like exercising
once a day for like 2 hours.

Maybe take some vitamins if you're not
getting enough from your what you eat,
also eat your vegetible. There are people
who grew up taller than their so heredity
might not be that important.

Im 15 and about 5'8" and when I was 14 I
was exactly where you are thinking that
you won't grow, I thought I would never
grow but in about 8 months ive grown 3
inches. So you have got a chance that you
will start growing soon.
Ive played hockey for 10 years now and it
has seemed like I have grown slower

I appreciate all the advise. I've been
away from this site for quite awhile.
However, I personally believe that i've
stunted my growth somehow. Meh.

Are either of your p[arents about your
height, or even your grandparents? Do
you feel that you eat anought for your
growing body?

I'm 16 and 6'-6'1'' (haven't measured
myself in a while, but I have grown for
sure).
My parents are 5'7'' and 5'8''.
I get my height from my mother's side.
Her father was a rather tall fellow.
Same height as I am currently.
So to me, it seems it's just genetics.
Oh ya, I drank my milk. :o

Well if you stay short, who cares? Alot
of guys are short, alot of girls are
shorter than short guys. I can't say I
relate to your problem, because i'm a
girl, and i'm 6ft.
But hey, surfers and wakeboarders are
usually short.. Stronger center of
balance and what not, so take up
wakeboarding or something... Chicks dig
it :-p
