There is no real way to answer this question. It is not just your parents that contribute to height. Look at your grandparents as well for a good indicator. You could still have some growing to do. I did not stop getting taller until I was 18. I am 5'8". My mom and sister are only 5'4" and 5'5" and my dad was 5'11". All of my aunts are taller and both my grandfathers are taller. Look at your family history. You shouldn't stress too much because there is nothing you can do but wait. You may just end up being a shorter girl and there is nothing wrong with that.
Most girls stop growing by 16, I don't know how scarlet fever would affect that... There's a chance you could still grow but I would think the chances are slim seeing how short your parents are.
Only time will tell!
i know how you feel. I am 4'11 myself and only 15 years old, soon to be 16. I went to the doctor to ask about my height and he said there was nothing i could do, but i wanted to prove him wrong. So i got this book "Growing Taller Secrets" by rober grand and it is a really good book and shows you how to get taller. but if you don't want to get the book here are some things that may help, you should eat egg at least every other day, the white part; you should stretch, a lot and the best thing to do is hang off of something like a monkey bar for 15 minutes every day. Join a sport like volleyball, basketball, or swimming which all help stretch your body. find a point in your house that you cant reach w/ jumping and try to jump and touch the spot at least 50 times each day. These all should help make you taller but you have to believe in it. hope i helped.
you might reach 5ft if ur lucky
ouch...my mom is 5'6 & my dad is 6'4. i am 5'7 & the same age as you &&& i wanna be taller :]
im sure you'll grow though. dont worry.
besides, people say guys like shorter girls haha (i think)
hope i helped ;]
not much more, sorry
Girls usually stop growing around 16 and depending on how physically active you are, then you'll grow one last inch at 16 or 17
Chances are you will still grow, possibly until you are 16-18. It depends on when you start your period. They say once you start your period you will typically continue growing for one more year and then stop.
If you are a man, you are going to stop growing till you are 25 though from 18 to 25 it`s going to be very few centimetres. If you are a girl you are going to stop growing at 17. and that`s all you`ll get. Anyway, unless your grandparents are shorter than your parents you could be thru. Chances are you`ll be taller than your parents and grandparents because nowdays people eat much better and more balanced diets than long ago. Don`t worry. Small people are nicer than big people.
