too tall?
Okay, this may sound really stupid, but I'm serious about asking this question. I'm a girl, I'm thirteen, weigh 105 pounds and I'm 5 foot seven. I'm so tall, and I HATE it! I wish I could stop growing! No offense to tall females, but I think that tall isn't really that flattering for me. My mom is always complimenting me on how tall I am, and I hate it so much! I don't want to be tall! She won't even let me drink coffee to stunt my growth! My doctor said that I might even grow to six feet! I don't want to be that tall! I hate my height already! I'd be happy to be 5 foot four! ARGHH please, is there anything I could do to 'appear shorter' or to stop growing??

Hey i am 5'7 too! you kinda skinny to be five seven dont worry if your thirteen you might have a chance at staying around the same hight idont about being shorter tho

well theres not really anything you can do to make yourself shorter, but you can change your views on it. being tall isn't a bad thing, and you can make the best of it from your own views. a lot of people like taller girls, it's all just personal taste.

if it's just guys that give you problems, then hush up about it because they all gain height in a year or so anyway (assuming you're around 13-15). Until then, you probably don't need to be dating and if you do then you can just laugh with your datee about your height. Barring all that, I was 5'7 in sixth grade. Now at 15, I'm 5'9 1/2. It does slow down. Now, the only down-side I see to being tall is that I have huge man-feet and unless I absolutely have to I can't wear women's shoes. At 13 in females, feet should have stopped growing (unless you have scoliosis like I did) and unless you wear size 10s or 11s, you shouldn't grow to six feet. And it's neat to be really tall, you get to sneak into places because people equate height with age. I've not done it but there was a lady at my school last year who thought I was a senior (as a freshman). Embrace your height for those shorter than you will want it and it's silly to want to be short like them. Unproductive.

My friend was REALLY tall when she was like 12, and the doctor she would grow to be 5 foot 10. But then like 2 years later she stopped growing and now she is just normal like everyone else. So a lot of times, the doctors are wrong, don't listen to them. Also, if you exercise excessively, sometimes it will stunt your growth. Or you could stop drinking a lot of milk, or drink a lot of coke with caffeine. Hope I helped..:-)

Hi,
I bet you're wonderful as you are!! Everyone hates their height (I'm a 5 foot 2 midget!! Try reaching the top shelves at my height :P), you've just gotta accept it. Wear flat shoes and don't wear anything with vertical stripes, as they make you look taller. Oh, and don't make friends with midgets :P Lol. But whatever you do, don't slouch!! Women who are tall look four times as worse when they slouch, or walk with their knees and back bent. Don't worry about your height - you can reach all the top shelves, see people in a big crowd, and you don't get trodden on all the time! Be proud!! :)
Blessed Be,

First of all, why do you dislike being tall? Good Lord, I'm 5' 5" and I wish I was at LEAST 5' 7". Being tall gives you all sorts of advantages! You can wear all different types of clothes and they'll work perfectly with your structure, you're probably thin, and alot of guys I know LOVE tall girls. Take advantage of your God-given appearance, believe me, you'll appreciate it later.

Sweetie, I know how you feel. All my life, I was one of those tallest girls in my grade. In my family, it's normal to be tall. A few years ago, I was the tallest girl and I was so self-conscience because I always had to look down at people. Now that I'm in the 8th grade, I am one of the shortest girls in my grade. I'm so lucky that I stopped growing because my doctor told me I was going to be around 5'9" when I'm older but I'm only 5'4" 1/4. Coffee doesn't stunt anyone's growth. Trust me, I've tried everything. There really isn't anything you could do to "appear shorter" or stop growing. Don't worry about it, being tall is alright. Hope I helped :)

5'7 isn't really that tall for me but i guess that's because i'm really tall but don't wear high heels. I really think you should embrace your height because there are a lot of people you wish they had your height but they don't

Well your tall you should actually be happy.. cause if your pretty then you can be a model i tried out for modeling and i was too short.. but you cant do much bout how tall you are and you cant really stop yourself from growning or appear shorter.. i know i aint help much but if you look pretty you might try it.. ~*DEZ*~

I'm 5'4 and i'm taller then all the other girls in my grade except for 2. It's really not that bad because you have advantages in sports like basketball. Somtimes it's better to be taller than to be short so don't sweat it.

stop growing...not sure. but if you want to look shorter, don't wear heels or tennis shoes with a lil height on them. and get some help from friends or your mom to find clothes that would flatter your tallness and make you feel better about it. hope i helped!

well i am from the other extreme. i am 15 and am only 4 foot 8.5 inches. that's short! people come in all different sizes. and guys will like you no matter how tall you are. appearing shorter will only show people that you are insecure about your height. and trying to make yourself stop growing will only put unnecessary stress on your bones and muscles. so just get comfortable with your hieght... there's really nothing you can do to change it

Im 15 and im 5'7", 115 lbs... My whole life ive been tall and i kind of always hated it too. I think theres some kind of steroid u can take to stop growing. but i dont suggest doing that. you are the way you're supposed to be.

Well, you could avoid high heels at all costs... That's one thing I really don't like, tall girls who wear high heels, they look like Amazons.
I'm 6' so being 5' 7" isn't all that bad, but I can understand where you are coming from.
I'm drinking coffee as we speak, I've been drinking coffee since I was 8 or so, it doesn't do much to stunt growth.
