Will I grow anymore if I'm 5'3?!


Question: I'm 15 years old and I am only 5'3. My mum is 5'6 and my dad is 5'11. I really just want to be an inch taller at least but I have a feeling it won't happen. I know people will say don't be worried about your height but I am the smallest in the classes (apart from one kid).
Can anybody tell me if I will or not or if there are any ways (even if they are stupid) of encouraging your body to grow?
Thanks for looking

Females usually stop growing at 15 and often earlier and sometimes later so you may have reached your peak height already.

Sometimes females grow up to the age of 18 but this is uncommon and in some very isolated and almost unheard of cases females actually grow until 21.

Your chances of growing any taller are very slim but there is a glimmer of hope.

Wish I could tell you something more cheerful.

You provably will grow taller.
When i was 14 years old i was dating this guy that was my height and a couple of years I passed him.
He wouldn't grow more because he was on his early twenties

You truly shouldn't worry about your height. Girls don't stop growing until the age of around 17 years.
Being tall is the best thing ever. I am 5' 9" and 14. I wish I were shorter. The grass isn't always greener on the other side. Embrace your height. People will respect you for being confident about yourself.

Lets look at things from a different perspective: you are apparently healthy, blessed enough to have access to a computer, are able to go to school to get an education. So, you have so much going for you. I realize that looks are important, but we are not to worry over them. Us girls are notorious for that, but that is a ploy of Satan to get us focused on ourselves, in stead of the main things in life.Real and lasting Beauty is from the inside out.
The bible tells us that who can add one cubit to their statute by worrying? No one. Believe in Jesus, as that is the main thing in life.
