Will i grow?

Hi , I am 14 years old and around 5 feet 7.5 inches(171cm). my dad is around 6 feet 2 inches(188cm) , my mum is 5 feet 5 (166cm). I have been the same height for nearly 7-8 months now. A lot of my friends who were shorter than me are reaching my height if not becoming taller. Will i grow anymore. P.S. I think because I hit puberty early I had a growth spurt when I was around 12 because I used to be around 5 feet 4 inches when I was 10-12 years old.The reason I say i hit puberty early is because I am starting to develop a proper beard.

I don't quite understand why people are bothered with their heights.

Anyway, according to science, our bones usually grow until 25. So, there's a long way to go for you.
