!PLEASE HELP!
Answer:Usually males get a hrowth spurt in their late teens, so you still have a chance to get taller. Since your family is taller, you have a good chance og being that tall as well.
There is nothing really you can do. Just wait and see.
You don't have to worry you still have another growth spurt left.This will probably happen your sophmore year in highschool.
You will grow it just takes time. If you are not adopted then you will be fine. ~GL
The only way to know how tall you are going to be is to go to the doctor and have an xray done of your hand. From this, they measure the amount of space left between your bones, which will tell them how much more you will grow (you have growth plates in your bones which don't harden until you quit growing, which can be into your early 20's).
That is the ONLY way to tell how tall you will be. And there is NO way to grow faster or taller that is LEGAL. Now, if you are deficient in growth hormones, a doctor can prescribe human growth hormone, which will aid in your growing.
