I wouldn't consider it a problem. A lot of guys, including myself, find short girls attractive. Enjoy the attention!

If you want to increase your hight,i'm not sure what steps you should take,but if you want to increase your hEight then you should eat right,exercise,and take vitamins.If your a female older than 14 your pretty much stuck with your height and if your a male over 18 you will be lucky if you grow 1/4 of an inch more.

No, you cannot increase your height. You are basically done growing. And 3" more is not that noticeable. So accept your height and be happy

There is a possiblity you'll grow taller.  My son is over 6' tall, and his dad and I are no where near that height.

you really cant increase your heighth. If you take a good source of vitamins and are under 21 it will help increase your hiegth!

You are lucky you're 5'9" with parents that tall.  They must love you alot. Studies show that children who are nurtured while growing can grow taller.  Hug your parents and drink milk, stay away from caffeine.

i hate to break it to you but girls stop growing @ 18 and then we only have the ability to shrink as we get older.. so if your lookin to grow go out and buy yourself those nice heeled boots or some platform flip flops.. dont be ashamed i am 6'2  (girl) and i wish i was short. i have to look down on everyone and i hate how everyone has to reach to me.

It's possible that you could level off at around 6ft or a bit taller \nor if you hit puberty early you may not grow anymore but generally speaking you grow until you are roughly 18 but I have had friends that had a growth spurt when 21 so it all depends on genetic's and ancestry.  Ask your parents if they had tall uncles or grandparents or any ancestors that had been tall.  Myself my dad is only 5'10" but I'm almost 6'2 and have older brothers we share the same dad and they are 6'4" and 6' 5" but I also have \nScandinavian background, Viking and Icelandic so it goes to say we are built like tree trunks as well.

How tall are your parents?  That is a indicator of your height if they are both tall or if they are both short.  Do you have siblings or Cousins?  At what age did they shoot up in height?  When I was 14, I was 5'7".  Most of my classmates were up to a year or more older than I.  I was tied for tallest girl in the class and there was only 1 boy who was taller than us.  Most of them were a whole lot shorter than me.  I thought I would never find someone that would be tall enough for me.  Guess what, the boys grew up(at least in height).  Do you know what else?  The Girls Grew up?\n\nSo if most of the girls were not at their full height at 14/15 and then they grew taller.  Who knows at this point how tall you will be.  \n\nDon't smoke - it stunts your health.\n\nDevelop a tall personality.  By being kind and thinking of others, people will Look Up to You regardless of your height.\n\nMake friends with some Taller kids so that you have a protection when you need it. (I'm Kidding, but a little serious)\n\nStand up straight with your shoulders back and down.  Keep your head over your shoulders.  If you carry a heavy backpack watch for leaning forward to compensate the weight.  This could make you look shorter and feel shorter and it is bad for your back.  Why have all of that weight holding you down.  If you can get a backpack that rolls so you won't be putting all of that downward pressure on your spine.  \n\nSmile and enjoy your life.  Whether you grow taller or not.  A tall person hanging their head in shame does not look tall.  A shorter person with a Clear Conscience can have a Twinkle in their Eyes and a Smile on their Face.  Be the best 4'11" Girl you can be this year.\nNext year maybe your arms and legs will be inches longer and you'll have to adjust to walking again.\n\nStand Tall,  God Bless You,  ;-)\n\nPs: I am still 5'7"  I was just finished early.

Nope, I was 5'6 when I was 12. Now, I am almost 5'9. But, yeah on the averages, you are taller than most people your age. I am only 13 going on 14 and I am almost 5'9. Just talk to me if you feel uncomfortable, cuz chick I know all about that.

There is no way to increase your height. Just have to deal with how your body grows. But, you can practise standing, sitting, and walking straight up. It won't make you taller, but it'll be good for posture.

It depends on what your definiton of short is.  You are only fourteen.  You have about four more good years of growing to do!  How tall is your mom and dad?  You will probably take after them.  Until you are done growing(and after)make sure to get lots of calcium, take a multivitamin, and make sure to get lots of excercise.  Also dont drink to many caffeinated pops or coffee. They deplete your bones of calcium
