You probably have 3 years of growing ahead of you and you will probably grow another 3 inches to peak at 5'3 or 5'4.

To help your DESTINED NORMAL growth you need plenty of protein, calcium and zinc and a deficiency can STUNT it. There is plenty of zinc in red meat, oysters, mussels, nuts, sunflower seeds and pumpkin seeds.

DUH Leg extentions!!!!!

There are growth steroids you can take. But I don't know how good they are for you. Otherwise there is pretty much nothing you can do to make yourself taller. And big feet doesn't always mean you'll be taller. I have a friend who's 5'6" w/ size 12 feet (girl) and another with size 10 feet and she's about the same height.

If you have big feet, don't worry about it. My cousin was 11, had big feet, and he was only like 5'4. It's only been a year or so, and last week I saw him, he's 5'11, I could hardly recognize him lol

get outside and enjoy the sun. Without sunlight, your body has a hard time utilizing vitamin D, which your bones need for growth. There's a reason people from sunny climates are taller than those from cloudy regions.

However, genetics do play a role. You have a genetic height range that you can potentially achieve, given proper nutrition and other environmental factors. You probably won't get taller than your mom or dad without surgery or possibly medications, which I don't know if they really work or not. You may be taller than both of them, but I wouldn't count on it.

My identical twin is 4 inches taller than I am. I blame this on my getting very sick and spending almost 2 years in a bed without sunlight and proper nutrition when I was about your age.
