Answer 1

Stand up straight and be proud of your height.  Did you know that studies have been done showing that taller people earn more money when they're in the business world?  

Answer 2

being tall is not whatsoever a bad thing, i'm 5'8'' and i'm sixteen and i love it. I think in a couple years you'll see that being tall is awesome, as a girl yeah it did bother me at first, but I know a lot of guys that like tall girls. I mean really it's just something you have to get used to, and learn to like it :)

When I was in grade 8 (I think I was about 5'6" also) I was, like, average height.

It's not as if you can make yourself shrink or anything.

5'6 isn't very tall - your friends/classmates will catch up soon. :P

Answer 9

Answer 10

Hi there,

If you're only 13 then it's viable that you're going to keep on growing.

5' 6" isn't really that tall to be honest, over in England, when I was at School, people were 6' at 13 years old!!! (Both male and female).

My BF was 6' 2" at 13 and is 6' 6" now, lol!

Just s***w everyone else, at 13, other kids can be immature cretins anyway. Why would you want to be the same as everyone else anyway? That's boring.

If they say anything say to them "At least I ain't no short-a*r*s*e c*u*n*t" then walk away. Or say "Big words little [insert gender], now back them up with something better!".

They will learn you can be smarter than them.

Or if not, ignore them if anyone says anything.

Answer 12

I'm 25 yrs old and I'm only 5'0.

I'd LOVE to be 5'6.  Lucky gal
