Answers:
its okay cauz i know how you feel, i'm 14 too and i'm only 5-2 and a half!. just eat alot and drink a lot of milk - even if u hate it!. and don't worry about getting fat cauze u only a got about a year more to grow and all the fat will turn in to hieght!. ( girls grow untill they r 18 but u grow faster when you r younger)
this summer eat healthy and get really active( drink alot of milk, it helps - i know from experience) and you will definatly grow an inch this summer!. i relized when i waz 13 that i was too short so i eat alot and i got a growth spurt - i grew 2 inches in 7 months!. don't make the same mistake i did - i can't grow any more cauz my mom is really short and i got those genes from her!. but don't worry bout it cauze u will definatly grow taller!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

probibly not over the summer!.
If you realy want to get taller, there is surgury for it, what they do is they cut open your legs, break the bones (literaly) and then place a device in the bones that can be adjusted to move the seporate parts of your leg bones appart as they try to grow together, the result is longer bones!.

for the pain involved I wouldent go through it, not if your over 5' exspecualy if your a girl (girls around your height are almost always hot!!) If I was you, I would pick another sport like paintball, (small people are awsome at paintball because they are harder to hit!.)Www@Answer-Health@Com

I am a short person and have always been but i am female and for us it is diffrent but you are still young and can grow up till you are 18 or longer depending on your genes or family history!.Have you tried asking both of your tall parents when they got ther groth spurt!? And if you dont shot up there are a lot of good things you can still do!. Keep the faith and i will bet you will be a tall man one day!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Even though you picked the right parents, there are no guarantees!. Your doctor is probably right!. I'm a high school volleyball coach and I usually don't see girls on my teams grow more than a couple of inches from when they first try out!.

If you are very active, you need to make sure that you eat enough to give your body the energy it needs to reach your full growth!. Finally, if you don't get any bigger before tryouts, show the coach that you are the hardest worker on the court!. It's true that we look for tall girls, but we also look for the hard workers in each class of incoming freshmen!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There is no other way except thru surgery which is costly, painful, and only certain people with disabilities qualify!. Everyone is taller first thing in the morning when they wake up from being stretched out and relaxed all night long!. But we all shrink once we awake and continue on with our day!. If you don,t make it this year there is always the next!. For your age, your height is average, you,ll continue to grow throughout the summer,when most things grow more!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Stressing about it ain't going to help you any!. Besides what is your definition of tall!? Tall is realative!. I'm 5 foot 7 some people are shorter than me, which makes me feel tall, then there are people who are taller than me and I feel short!.

It is relative, being tall guarantees NOTHING, just be the best you you can be!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i play volleyball on a national level!. & setters are usually very short!. just make sure you have good hands and your quick, and get under the ball!. If you doctor says you wont grow too much more, you prbably wont!. but if your a setter, thats a good thing! dont worry!. unless you want to be a middle blocker, your okay!. lol :] good luck with making the team!.:]Www@Answer-Health@Com
