Answers:

dont worry about it some people are just short and in some kids dont start growing until 15 and stop at about 17 one of my freinds grew 6" in one summer when she was 16
If your parents are both pretty tall then you might have a growth hormone issue in which case you can take a hormone that will cause you to grow. It might be to late however. Im short as well. 21 and 5'5. Im actually taller than both my parents however. Regardless I went in when I was about 14 or 15 to get a growth hormone test done and mine unfortunatley were fine so there was nothing they could do. But trust me there is nothing wrong with being short! Especially if your a girl.
You have nothing to worry about im 3rd shortest in my class out of 25. You just havent had your growth spurt. mines late to so just relax! It could run in your family if your parents are short and your grandparents. Chill your fine!
Most people stop growing in their twenties. Some times growth seems to come overnight. Of course heredity plays a part in the process. If both parents are short you are likely to be the same.
It is no crime to be short many famous people were short. Most of your actors and actresses are short.
The average height for females is 5'4" so you aren't all that short...and you're not quite done growing so may gain some more height before it's all through.
No, there is no natural way to get taller than your body is preprogrammed to grow. Good nutrition and exercise will help it reach its potential though.
drink alot of skim milk unless youre skinny! and eat healthier! and run alot! trust me i did this and guess wat? when it was summer i was really short, really really short and i was 4"8 and i grew to 5"6 and i was only 11! try it! it will help!
The age you stop growing depends on your "bone age" I think. I am not considered short YET because I haven't stopped growing at age 11 ish (bone age is 12). I know I am young, but I was supposed to have my mother's 'tall' gene. Instead, I was going to be technically 'short'. If your bone age is say '14' or '15', i think you either can still grow or might not be able to anymore. A natural way to get taller? I've grown 2 3/4 inches so far in... a fair amount of time. I think it really depends, so maybe you can try. Try stretching your arms and playing basketball or jumproping.
If you are still within the growing age then perhaps you can add a few inches by eating a balanced diet and leading an active life. A nutritious diet that includes fruits and vegetables, dairy, cereals, meat, and plenty of water will aid the natural process for enhancing height. A good and proper night’s sleep is also essential for the growth process. Taking part in active sports along with some stretching exercises can have a cumulative effect on human growth. There is not much we can do to grow taller after puberty. There are many products in the market today that claim to increase height of adults, but they are all scams without sufficient scientific evidence. Surgical options, though available, are EXTREMELY RISKY and of course expensive. This leaves us with basically two options.
