would like to shrink how?

Sorry, shrinking isn’t possible… but honestly, lots of girls and women would envy you your height. One reason that models have to be tall is that tallness makes you look slimmer.

OK, in your grandmother’s generation, 5’7” or so was considered ‘tall’ - but not today. (My neighbor has a daughter who is 6 ft tall - and is happily married, so there!)

But please please DON’T slouch! It won’t make you look shorter, just clumsy. And it won’t do your back any good.

Warm regards from a dumpy little 5’4” type.

There was a tall kid in my class when I was about your age, everyone called him a freak but that was because they were jealous of his height. Even if you could become shorter you wouldnt want to. I would suggest that you join a sport, you would be intimidating on the football or basket ball field. Good luck. On a side note Susila has a good point don’t slouch, back problems can occure very quickly from that.

PHRANNIE no fair - you must have been peeking while I was writing my answer!

And westside shrark - I forgot to add about that neighbor’s daughter ‘ she has a husband who is shorter than she is, and that SHE dresses extravagently - brightly colored, flowing skirts, BIG patterned pullovers…and looks simply gorgeous.

you cant shrink considereing its your BONES that make you tall and you cant make bones any smaller or shorter you can however with painfull surgery to break yourt leg bones and reconect them this doesnt always work though, and you could ned up not being able to walk youve probablyt reached your fuull heaight, or will stop growing at around age 16-18 from then on you get lder, and youll, develop wrinkles, and later on, probably shrink a little bit and buy the time your finnished puberty, most of your friends would have caught up yto you and they would hae gotten taller because everyone develops at different rates and at different times
