height of 13-year-olds
13/f
I've seen a lot of people on here asking questions who are like 13 and 5"9 and 14 and like 5"8. Well, I'm 5"4, and I know I'm going to be tall when I grow up, like 5"9 or so. So anyway, like no one I know looks like they're done growing at 5"10 or whatever. Is it normal for me not to be done growing and for others to be? Isn't it sort of early for people to be done growing at 5"10 when you're only like 13 or 14?

I'm 16 and I'm 5'3 and a half. I was 5'3 in seventh grade. I haven't grown taller in about 2 years. You never know what's going to happen. And I don't know how you know you're going to be tall. Even if both of your parents are tall, they could carry a recessive short gene and that's what you could have gotten. Also, if a doctor predicted your height, that doesn't mean anything either. When I was 11ish, the doctor told me I should grow to be about 5'8-5'9. I'm only 5'3. No one knows for sure. Don't worry if you're still growing, it's completely normal. No one grows at the same rate, so don't use others for means of comparison.

My little brother is 11 and he is 5 feet 8 inches!!!! It doesnt matter if your short, especially when your a girl. If your parents are short, then you might be short. Just look at how tall your mom is, youll probably be as tall as her, or about the same size. But im not promising you will be as tall as your parents, because im 14 and taller than my dad (im 5"10, and hes 5"9). My grandparents are tall, but my dad must have skipped a gene, because hes almost average. After all the average hieght fo a 13 year old girl is 5"1

The average age to stop growing is from like 10-18.
I stopped growing at 13, at...almost 5'3"
