will i EVER stop growing?

I'm only 13, and i'm 5 foot SEVEN! OMG, like, I'm already as tall as a 17yr old i know, and she's average height!

I wear an 11 shoe btw. *turns pink* shoes are hard to find...

seriously, will i stop growing soon, or am i cursed to be towering over everyone(including boys) my own age for ever?

    Honestly, thats not that tall.

    Being tall is a good thing! Every woman desires to be taller, and thinner. To look longer and leaner.

    Dont complain.

    If you continue growing at this rate, you've got a great future in basket ball, modeling, and countless other careers!

    Most people stop growing around 18.

    11 in shoes is big, but theres nothing wrong with that!

    I was that height at 13 and I am still that height. How tall are the other people in your family? I am a few inches shorter than my mother and my sister... and my shoes size was a 10 until I got pregnant... now I am a size 11 shoe. Don't worry... you probably won't grow that much more.

    In general people stop growing when they are finished with puberty, usually between the ages of 16 - 18.

    Its okay im 15 and 6' and wear size 12 shoes! You will eventually stop growing and believe it or not guys will stop growing. Ive always towered over everyone and one day at a pep assembly I realised that almost all the guys were my height or taller... and for the first time I felt short!!

    Teenage girls typically grow until they are about twenty. However, that is not always the case. At 13, I was 5'5". Now, 12 years later, I have only grown about an inch since then.

    We won't be able to determine the height that you are going to be, but whether you stop now, or you grow to 6 feet, hold your head high, girl! Think about it this way....Models are tall! Height is a thing that a lot of women wish they had. Embrace yours, love yourself for who you are, and don't worry about what others think about you.

    Ok it can be tough. Try a growth spurt at age 21-22 for a bit over 3 inches. That is what happened to me.

    im your age and five ten. dont worry and dont be embarrased by your height, and i wear a 11 1/2 shoe. if you have problems finding shoes, try converse or vans, their shoes are unisex and very comfy. just remember.. theres a lot of other girls out ther that are even taller than u.
