I’m a 13 year old girl that weighs around 94-98 pounds. My mom is 5’2, and my dad is 5’7. How much more can you grow? My aunts and uncles are much taller. Aunt- around 5’4. Uncle- around 5’10, 5’9 etc. I want to be a model when I grow up. Anybody who’s a girl that’s taller then your parents? Can you grow taller than your tallest parent? Thanks~

I’ve read several questions on here about growing taller and I feel that I can provide a bit more details, so maybe I’ll get a better answer than other people. I’m a 15 year old female (16 in December) and I’m currently 5’2". My mom is 5’7" and my dad 5’9". My grandparents and all of my aunts and uncles are around that height too. I never really had a "growth spurt". I just grew about 2 inches over a period of 3 years. No fast growth…I have several close female friends that are the same height as me, but they all wear a size 4-6 in shoes and they’ve all had a growth spurt. I’m the only one that’s 5’2" and wears a size 8 shoe. My taller friends all have bigger size shoes. One of my female friends is 6 months younger than me, wears a size 11 and is 5’11". I’ve always heard that when you wear a bigger size shoe, you will be taller, which is the case with all of my friends. My question is will I grow any taller? Nobody in my family is this short and I really hate being the shortest.

I know genetics determine most of your height, and sleep and food determine the rest, but are there anything i can do besides sleeping and eating that will help me grow taller? My relatives are all tall, even if their parents (my aunts and uncles) are short.
