just play along with it, when you start laughing or making up your own jokes about being tall others will stop teasing you about it because it will no longer be fun for them. I promise you it will work.

Tell them to watch out or you’ll crush them. Make the jokes before they do. Play along. It’s so much less fun for them then.

Answer #10

Answer #11

Once you hit high school and the guys get to be taller than you, they’ll love you, if that’s actually your picture than trust me you may not even have to deal with them cause you could get guys from older grades since you look older and seem older than thirteen because of your height and looks. I used to be called “jolly green giant” myself, and i’m 16 and 6’1 which at my age isn’t all that tall anyway but i AM taller than a lot of ppl, so i didn’t really take it seriously because loads of girls 1-3 years older than me talk to me and think i’m their age so being tall is never bad once you get of age where people become as tall as a grown person. =)

Answer #12

Lucky you…I wish iwas 5’9 I want to be a model so I pray every night that I’ll grow 6 inches taller.I look up stretching exercises and sleep a lot.

Answer #13

people are so ignorant, im 17 and im about 5’2, I WISH I was tall. forget the stupidity of your peers and do something productive with your height, like victoria johnson says, you could be a model.

Answer #14

OK, well I’m really tall and I was made fun of alot to. It’s hard I know but you have to remember that until they go though puberty their going to be short, it’s not your fault your tall. You also need to use your height as an advantage, help people reach things or you could even do sports like volleyball, basketball, or even track. Remember you will not be the tallest forever, just wait til high school.
