Girls stop growing at 16, so me, I'm stuck at 5'3" ::sigh::. This kid I went to school with since grade school was ALWAYS the smallest kid. In 7th grade I was around 5'1" and he was 4'11"... Senior year in highschool he's 6'0" and still growing.
For now, all you need to do is just keep eating healthy, cut down on the coffee if you drink any and soda. Soda is SO bad for you. But honestly, eat your veggies and fruits and drink milk! I'm sure I sound like your mother, but really, milk will help you and it will make your bones stronger.
But you will grow, all your friends that are taller, it just means they had their spurts sooner than you did. Who knows you might end up being taller than them someday [= [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]

Time will. You won't be done growing for several years, and chances are, you'll grow into your size more. [ killerface's advice column | Ask killerface A Question ]
