Digïtál £vîl Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 You are going to be short for the rest of your life. In fact, you are going to start shrinking within a year or two. Expect to only be around 3 feet tall by the time you are 20 years old. Shorty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnyboy Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 (edited) I am 6' 4''. Don't believe it, look up next time your in Waukesha. But, I would just say, just let it happen. Most of time growth spurts just regularly pop in at any time. Let nature have it's way. Edited July 16, 2008 by Ronnyboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard if you spend ten minutes each day standing on your head, your legs grow towards the sunlight, like a plant's stem. Give it a bash and get back to me after a month.

How did you "trigger" your growth spurt beacuse im pretty sure your lifestyle has somthing to do with it. You want REAL advice? You aren't going to "trigger" any kind of growth spurt. Not unless you start taking some sort of hormone or steroid injections. Lifestyle has little to do with it unless you are doing something to stunt and delay your growth. And if that is the case, it would be pretty damn obvious because it will be something like smoking a pack of cigarettes a day or a gallon of coffee or something. You know, something that a 15 year old shouldn't be doing. Real Advice: Start learning to deal with being the short guy in the group because you will likely remain that way the rest of your life.

gta_player5 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 5'7" and you're 15, you think that's ridiculously short? I've known people who were older than you and who were shorter than you. If you're 15 years old odds are that you're not finished growing, so just wait, there's no "triggering" growth in height, unless you do what Digi said and take some kind of growth hormone.

Rhoda Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 5'10", and I've still got some growth to come. I was a short arse until about 18 months ago (barely 5 foot) but I've really shot up recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad is about 5"8 or 5"9 and my mum is around 5"2. Holy crap. If you lived in America, you could have applied for "little person" status and been classed in a disabled group to get a bunch of benefits when you turned 18. You were really 4'2'' and grew to 5'9'' in 3 years? Holy crap, that is a sh*tload of growth, I didn't even think that is humanly possible. You should see a doctor about that.

Welp, I'm about 6'1" or 6'2", am 24 & have been smoking since I was 16 &.. they don't stunt your growth. But they give you cancer, make you smell & it gets expensive. Either way, prob best you don't start smoking! (unless you're smoking already, then quit! ) But also, as this guy says just go with it. If you don't like being as tall as you are then be thankful you're not a dwarf! Edit - also, my parents are both around 5'5" - 5'8", so are my girlfriends parents & she's 5'11" & a half. & she adds; "It just depends on which tad scrambles which egg."

Just wondering. Im actually black myself....this has nothing to do with that steryotype though. This made me think of my 16 year old friend (also black) hes 5'3... not saying much cause another friend of mine who used to respect me showed up at my 12th birthday with a height of 5'7(5'2 last time and I used to be taller) each year then on hes grow 3 inches. he 2 months byounger than i am...do the math and youll see why hes stopped listening to be (might be becuse hes so high) Edited July 16, 2008 by nutboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disabled because of height? lol, cool . I was honestly around 4"2 but when i was around 18 i started growing. I got to my height before i was 21, i mainly gained my height until i was 20 and near the end of being 20 i gained the last couple of inches. I've always been small compared to my mates through out school but i'm taller than most of them now . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
