BattlestarMarathon Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Don't worry about how tall you are. I grew 5 inches in one summer. Growth spurts are common at your age. Just make sure to get plenty of calcium (so your bones have fuel to grow with), get any necessary vitamins, and you should be fine. Link to comment
ocrob Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 My young friend don't even worry about it. You never know what the future holds. Just take care of yourself and don't smoke. You are very young and there is no way of knowing how tall you will be. There are so many other things in life to focus on. Just be a good person and always give 100% to things you care about. Study hard and focus on school. Link to comment
acuraman Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Your still growing! Like the others have said, don't worry about your height. Your the same height as I am and Im glad that Im this height because I can fit in any car perfectly, my feet doesn't hang off the bed, and there are many more advantages to being the height you are.

steff Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 from what ive noticed, guys seem to have a growing spurt when their in year 11-12, and then they get really tall... so that might happen to you. Link to comment
ShySoul Posted February 5, 2006 Share Posted February 5, 2006 You are young, you still have time to grow. And even if you don't, being tall isn't anything special. Sure, you can reach the top shelf easier, but its a hassle to bend down for the bottom shelf. And it helps if you want to be a basketball player. But otherwise, its nothing special. Height doesn't change the person you are. I'm only 5'7''/5'8''. I know a girl who is only 5'4'' and another girl whose only 4'9''. Both great people. Whatever height you are, leave that up to genetics. You'll be as tall as you get, but it won't cahnge who you are inside. Link to comment
