It sounds like you're destined to be 5'8, I'm afraid. You could grow more, you never know, but as both your parents are short it seems unlikely that you'll reach 6 feet tall. To maximize your growth potential then just like a healthy lifestyle and make sure you get the nutrients you need. If you don't grow then at least you'll be healthy!
Being 'short' isn't the end of the world - besides, 5'8 barely qualifies as short anyway.

Im 16 and about 6,1 maybe a bit taller and i want to get up to 1m95cm👌🏼
Eat healthy and a lot (calcium, proteins, carbohydrates, etc.), no smoking, drinking, if you workout dont use heavy weights (as it is bad for the joints, which inhibits growth) and do excercises to relax your muscles.
You're going to grow a little more, but otherwise you're screwed dude.
