Hi it's me again, I know I'm 13 and I'll still be able to grow but this site also has some "height" info and I checked it out, I might only be able to grow to 5 feet 6in and stop, and that's not a good thing, I wanna be like 5'8 or 9...I'm skipping the rope a 100 times a day right now, do you think that'll help abit? Or should I increase the amount of times to 200? 300? C'mon someone's gotta help me here...

Um, other than an actual surgery Kim, there really isn't anything you can do about your height. I'm pretty short too so I know how you feel, but I'm 18 years old. I mean, was around 5ft when I was your age.. So I grew some, but not much. You really should just come to terms with the fact that you will probably grow a little more, but not much. 5-6 inches MAX.. But hey, if your parents are both tall, let's hope that you didn't take the ressesive "short gene", and that the dominant "tall gene" is just lying a bit dormant. But about the jump roping, keep it up if it makes you feel good, it's definitely great to help keep anyone in shape, but I don't think it'll make you taller at all.. Sorry.
