How can I help my growth?

I am 16 years old. 2 younger brothers are taller than me (13 year old -5'8" and 15 year old- 5'7"). I am 5'6". I sleep at 11pm on average, because my school work keeps me up, and I usually wake up at 6:30, so thats 7 and a half hours of sleep... I think.

So to get to the point, I want to know how to help my growth. Should I sleep more? I have recently decided to stop drinking coffee (I drink 4 cups a week, with sugar v_v) please help. I don't want to stay short :0

    Just relax, you're just a late bloomer. You will grow with time.

    Genetics rule - you cannot re-program genetics.

    You cannot MAKE yourself grow taller.

    You can probably increase your odds by - No smoking - no beer/ale - no booze - no drugs.

    Dump the junk food, fast food garbage & sugary sweet soda's.

    Eat healthy, get plenty of fresh air, sunshine & exercise, exercise, exercise.
