I had to be really really unlucky for me to end up the height I am now (5'5.5")?

My father is 5'9"-5'10", I rarely see guys who are significantly shorter than their fathers, it's really rare to the point where it'd be considered anomaly. Blaming mom's height is a bad excuse. Most people I know tower over their fathers when they have midget mothers.

Either that or I managed to stunt my growth.

5'5 isn't necessarily bad. But I'll help you out. I was 5'6 when my growth plates fused but then I started going out for morning and evening runs and got involved in yoga not because I wanted to get taller but because of my ambitions that I have and so I started training. About a year an a half later I noticed I was now a little bit taller than my cousin who was the same height as me at the time I was told and showed by x-rays, that my growth plates fused. I went to get my height checked and found out that I grew a total of 1.5 inches. I'm 5'7 now and I feel like I may get even taller if I start swimming or whatever. Sounds unbelievable but it's what truly happened. It's not a huge growth compared to the other heights you listed but I'm happy with my height and just thought I'd tell you that if you really want to get a bit taller start exercising or get involved in yoga. You'll benefit yourself in every way doing these things too. Hope I helped a bit. :) ---- P. S my mom is 5'0 and my dad is 5'6
