Am I to short for my age?!


Question: Am I to short for my age.?
I'm in High school, 14 years of age, and I'm 5' 4". All the guys in my class are taller then me and they kind of make fun of me, it kind of got to me, that's why I'm writing this.

It would be appreciated if someone replied with the TRUTH
Please don't lie and try to make me feel better, I just need the truth
Thank you. Health Question & Answer


Answers:
You're slightly on the short side for 14, but don't worry, you'll have growth spurts. At 14, I was about 5' 5.5" or so, now I'm 15 and 5' 10". Don't worry about it. Just eat healthy and be patient. You will grow.Health Question & Answer

It's not unheard of, no. You're a bit on the shorter side, yes. But only a bit.

You'll probably have a mini-growth-spurt within the next year or so. You'll always be a bit on the shorter side (unless you're a late bloomer) but you won't be 5'4... Health Question & Answer

You're normal, even if it seems like every boy is taller than you. Focus on what you're good at and what you can do, not on things you can't do anything about. Don't dwell on this; it'll only make you feel bad.Health Question & Answer

Being 5'4 and 14, really isn't bad at all. The thing is, you havent had your growth spurt yet, and the other guys in your class probably have. Don't let it get to you, your not going to stay that height forever.Health Question & Answer
