zorrowna	ofcourse you'll grow more! You stop growing i think around 18ish. im not too sure. But 5'3 is probably about average. There is an 18 year old girl at my drama group, shes not deformed, she doesnt have any disease, except that shes just over 4' Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

jessicadiamond_4einc	Everybody grows at different rates. I myself am short, about 5'2" or so ... my dad is 5'6" and my mom 5'7" my grandmother on my dads side was always short though and had a big chest...I inherited her genes hehe short with a big chest. My husband is 6'4" and he loves me the way I am....loves my being short cause I fit nicely into his arms and he says he can keep me safe. His mother is about 5'4" and his dad was about 5'6" if I remember correctly. His brother is about the 6 foot mark and his sister is about the same height as my parents.... For all you know, you could have another growth spurt left, or you could be done growing. Don't place too much worry on your height, sometimes being shorter has it's advantages! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

That Dude	Im 20 and most of the 20 year old girls I know are either your hieght or shorter, you are at a very normal height especially for your age. You may still grow a couple more inches. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

X	Nope, you're not too short. I'm a female in my 20's and 5'1", and my sister was 5'8" by the time she was 14 (parents were both around 5'7"). You're just as good no matter what height you are. (: Doctors usually say that at 1 year after menarche (first menstrual cycle), girls are generally their full adult height. So if you had your first period when you were 12, you probably won't grow anymore (but its still possible). There are a lot of famous women that are 5'3" (or shorter): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_famous_short_women#5_ft_3_in_.28160_cm.29 Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Paul R	You might grow more, but you are almost "done growing." Girls usually stop growing around 13-16, but this doesn't mean that you can't, it is usually how it goes though. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Dragica	5'3" is not short - it's petite. Also, you will continue to grow until you are 18 and some do until age 21. Don't worry - with your parents' heights, you'll probably end up being tall. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

LGT	too short for what? For a short guy, you're perfect. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

tngapch	While males have a longer growth period than females, girls typically don't stop growing until around age 18-20. You have a chance that you will grow a bit more before your growth period is over. With two parents who are taller I would think you stand a fairly decent chance of gaining an inch or two. To encourage your body to grow be sure to eat a well-balanced diet that will give your body the fuel to grow. Dairy, protein, etc are important building blocks! And I don't think 5'3" is too short - I'm 5'2" and proud of it! As I've always said, the short ones are sweeter. ;-) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

kindrakid	WELL PUT IT THIS WAY, IM 45 AND 4 FOOT 9 AND 3 QUARTERS,SO I DONT THINK SO, BUTT YOUR MOM AND DAD , SOUND ABOVE AVERAGE HEIGTH SO I WOULDNT WORRY, I THINK YOU WILL BE GROWING,IM PRETTY SURE YOUR ONLY 13. WELL HAVE FUN GROWING Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

three_holepunch_haircut	No it is not too short! You are only 13 and it is highly likely that you will grow more given your age and the height of your parents. Even if you do not grow any more, you are still plenty tall. My brother's girlfriend is only 5' and she is 21. Believe me, it is no problem and definitely nothing for you to worry about. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Banana	No, Im 5'3" and I'm 14 year old about to be 15 year old. Don't worry about your height Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Cujo	Girls usually don't grow to be much taller than your mom. Yes you WILL grow taller, seeing how you are only 13. I would put you at about 5'5 or 6" when you get to be at your full highth. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Bark at the Moon	You'll grow some more hun. I'd say atleast 3-4 inches. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

HarryMay	too short for what?? you have a low probability of being MVP of the WMBA...not impossible though... you are also most likely still growing.. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

blonde@♥	well no..i'm like 5'2'' and i'm 14...and yeah, your only 13, i'm sure you'll grow...and since your parents are so tall, i'm sure you will be Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ellie	Even if you never grew another millimeter 5'3" is a great height, you can date, and look good next to any height of guy you want, short or tall. If it is too short for you though, look at the other people you are related to also. How tall are your aunts and grandmothers? Look at the person in your family you resemble the most, I look like my mother, and my dad's sister, where my sister just looks like my dad's sister, so she is taller than me like our aunt, and I am shorter like my mother. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Willow_Elf	Perhaps. Check with your doctor to see if your hips and other bones have fused yet. They were able to tell me when I was no longer going to grow any taller. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

villegas1123	honey, you're only 13...yes you will grow some more, and besides, I'm 39 years old, am 5'3 and my boyfriend is 6'4 and I love the height difference! "Honey, I can't reach that, can you get that for me?" LOL don't know what better, playing the "blonde" card (blonde is a frame of mind, not a color!) or the height card! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

I'm naked	Yes, you wiil probably shoot up overnight. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ThinkaboutThis	Are you too short for your height? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

J. Charles	Yes! EVENTUALLY!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

FaZizzle	You probably will. Your parents are a good sign of how tall you will be, but that's not the end all. I'm 5'4" in a family of giants. Crazy. Anyway, 5'3" is pretty normal. Don't worry about it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

huggz	Yes, you have a good few years growing time left. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
