Answers:
There is a genetic reality known as "regression towards the mean", which translates to "those who spring from the different are less different"!.
Genetically, this applies in the majority of cases, but not all!. In other words, if the genetic pool you spring from is tall, but you have short parents, you will be taller (in most cases)!. This a statistical truth, not a definition of an individual reality!. If the genetic pool you spring from is not tall (look to your grandparents), then you will not be tall!.
You can not teach your genes in a single generation!. You may be able to stretch yourself a bit with an inversion table (see refs), but I doubt it!.
Your best bet!? Get used to who you are!. Make the most of it!. Or, give up!.
You choose!.

Have someone pull on your arms, while someone else pulls on your legs!.
You're 15, you obviously know thats not going to work!. If you have reached the height of your parents and you are only 15, you are definately still growing!. You should just relax, time is the only thing that will make you grow taller!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

depends if you are a guy or a girl, cause if you're a girl generally you won't gain much more height!. if you're a guy, yeah i guess you could grow more!. most guys (my friends) have their growth spurt around that age!. so if you were a guy i'd say yes to 5'8" - but then again might not depending on your parents/relatives/race!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
