Answers:
Growth happens at different points, depending on how your puberty is progressing. It's entirely normal to grow slowly at age 14, and this is usually followed by rapid growth from age 15 to 16. Then it will probably slow down until you stop growing, probably around the age of 21.

I predict that you will grow to be 5'10", the same height as your father, and your brother will probably be an inch or two taller.

You are about half way thru puberty. You still have about 7 more years of growth potential ahead of you with growth spurts occurring along the way. No two person's chemical makeup is alike & no two people mature at the same age nor does everything fall into place all at once. Nobody can tell you when your growth spurts will happen. They sneak up on you when you're not looking. Nobody can tell how tall you will end up being once puberty is over. That's all in God's plan - not yours! Each person must wait their turn to complete development - and you are no exception. The keyword here is patience. You must learn to be patient. There are no quick fixes nor magic potions to hurry things along. Everything will fall into place in due time - and not before.Health Question & Answer

No way to know how tall you will be.. Hint: Your brother and your father are Not you... Meaning just because they are a certain height does not mean you will be the same as them. You are 14 you just hit puberty you are just not Beginning to grow not stopping.. You will continue to grow until your low 20 years old it is not surprising to me that you have only grow an inch your still Young it does not happen the same time for everyoneHealth Question & Answer

It depends, you might take after someone quite small in your family, where as your brother might take after someone quite tall.

Maybe you just aren't destined to be tall. For me personally, I know that you can take your height from anyone in your gene pool. My mother was 5 ft 6 and my dad 5ft 8. I am 6ft 4. However my auntie is 6ft 1. So, I know where I get my height.

There is also the fact people grow at different times. I never grew once when I was 15, then in 16 I took massive growth spurts. You're at a young age, so I wouldn't worry too much, I'm still growing little by little and I am 17. However, try and stop at 6ft, don't become too tall, it becomes a burden at times.Health Question & Answer
