I am 5'7.5 ft tall and 15 years old girl. Is my height too short? I am afraid
that I will not grow more.
@Emily Shwartz ,
You're taller than me. Don't worry about it. You're fine.

5 ft 4 inches is the average height for 15 yr old girls in the UK and US. So you are taller than average.
Emily, when I was your age, I was 6'2"--six foot two inches--tall, and I weighed only about 120 pounds. I was terrified that I'd never fill out, and that I'd be a "bean pole" all my life. It is common for young people to have these anxieties--but don't let it get you down. You will probably fill out, and grow taller, in the next few years. You won't really hit your full growth for six or seven years.
Relax, look down (literally) on the boys around you--it'll make them crazy.

Maybe in a good way. I have always liked tall girls, like my wife.
@Emily Shwartz ,
Haven't you noticed that you're taller than most other girls your age? Why are you concerned about being too short?
