Maybe give some free advice about: Illnesses?
There are no visible symptoms to chronic high blood pressure (hypertension); the only way to tell if you have it is to regularly slip on a cuff and measure it. Since both your parents have it, it's a good bet you will too. At the age of 13, it's not likely that it's a problem yet, but it's worth checking anyway.
Regular aerobic exercise will help, but it may not be enough. The best thing you can do is keep checking regularly, and if it stays persistently high, follow your doctor's recommendation.
