“Will having shorter parents affect how early you stop growing?”
Will having shorter parents (5’4 and 5’3) make you stop growing earlier? I haven’t grown almost at all since I had my growth spurt at 13. Im 14 about to turn 15 and im 5’8.5.

you have short parents so wouldn't expect you to be tall - if you haven't really grown in the past year, you are probably done or about done growing. Every boy is different when they finish growing - not really based on your parents height as to when you stop growing but your final height is greatly influenced by your parents' heights.
