It all depends on if you take after your mother or father.. No one really knows this. Maybe it will just be in between. Most people stop growing height wise when they are 18. Your too young, you should not even be worried about this. For anybody to give you an exact answer. We would have to have a medical degree and give you a medical examination and look at your bone structure weight and also use your parents as a guide.

Yeah man... We will never know. Dude, I wa always a short kid. My dad is 5'10 and my mom is 5'1 ...in high school I topped out at 6'

So don't stress... Besides, there is nothing wrong with being shorter than the norm. Just don't let yourself get "shortmans complex" lol

Haha being short is fine, the girls will think you're cute! However, you are very young, and I'm almost positive you will grow again before you hit 18. Just eat healthy and get lots of exercise. :P

Well let's see, are you a boy or girl? Boys and girls have different growth spurts. We can all have growth spurts as late as 19 years of age.

What's satogrowth? Did it really work for you? How much taller did you get? I really want to get taller too!
LEGRASKYE ~ I think you are too young to be worrying about that! I know for fact that is hard to be short...Even my friends make fun and I hate it...but since you are 13 if you get active and eat healthy food you can still grow...
