Stretching may temporarily make you a little taller but it will not make you permanently taller.

There's no way to actually get taller if you were only meant to be a certain height.

The height you will turn out to be depends on the family genes but even if your mom or dad are shorter you can still be taller than them.

Both my mom and dad are shorter than me and I'm over 6 ft tall.
