    first and foremost, you shouldnt try to stop your feet from growing. It will only cause more problems for you later on in life

    Yes, you can stop your feet from growing.

    if your feet are still growing ( i assume your in a pre-pubecent lifespan ).

    Now would be the easiest time to stop your feet from growing. The japenese women used to do it all the time. AND IT HURTS YOUR FEET ALOT!!!

    you tape them up really really tight, and then wear shoes 2 sizes smaller than you should be...

    Do that for the next 15 years and whallaa!!! smaller feet!

    One of the many problems of course is: future complications including the inability to walk properly, chronic pain, and possible ischemia (lack of oxygen) to your feet....causing of course a toourniquette ( i know i didnt spell it right )....

    hence, an amputation.

    dont do it, its just dumb.

    My honest suggestion, is speak to your family or a liscenced healthcare provider about your feelings about your feet. Maybe there are counselors who can help you through it.

    There are much worse things in life than big feet, trust me.

    sincerely,

    No, not really any way to stop them.. binding them makes them pretty mishapen. I would just deal with the fact that I have big feet.... there are a lot worse things to have to deal with. Big feet can be masked... by the type of shoes you wear. Wearing high heels make your feet appear smaller....

    NOT a good idea. Bound up feet get mishapen and you will regret it. They use to do this in Japan ~ Giesha's had very very tiny feet from being bound.

    there is no healthy way to keep feet from growing, however, binding them or wrapping them really tightly can inhibit growth...

    There are weird ways I'm sure but it's never worth the pain and deformity.

    Well, if they don't stop growing, and you really hate em, you could always cut em off and throw them off ur front porch, then take it to a vet. :)
